The IoT: Intrusive or Indispensable Objects?
Nasreddine Bouhaï · Internet of Things · 2017
The technological revolution which has taken place over the course of recent years has totally changed the concept of computing. New technological advances (such as miniaturization of electronics), led to the emergence of other solutions, new chips and electronic circuits, new computer systems and communication protocols, whose successful realization is the spread of mobile telephony and access to new compact and portable products. Contrary to the development of computers and mobiles, whose concepts do not differ very much from one manufacturer to another, the concept of the Internet of Things (IoT) is broader and refers to a new way of living and managing current and professional affairs via the Internet. As with the Internet, security is a workshop in perpetual evolution, the problem is posed and is transposed logically onto the protection of data sent and/or received by a connected object and becomes a great technological challenge for the different actors in this new ecosystem.
