The extract highlights that any successful IOT implementation is reliant on having a highly capable network, an appropriate analytics platform and adequate security, which are driving huge evolution at the network layer. In addition, we are seeing a number of emerging trends at the network layer that are being driven by the need for capacity, security and the management of devices. Things like software-defined networking, security, edge computing and fog computing (decentralised computing so unnecessary data is not transmitted over the network), while purpose- built IOT networks are starting to emerge that use new protocols. Many firms concentrate on the wrong questions and end up throwing a great deal of money and time at minimal security risks while ignoring major vulnerabilities. Discuss in detail the various reasons for this; and the company's principles in order to comply with its security obligations. Question 6 (Marks: 10) With the emergence of devices and sensors that are bridging the physical world and the digital world, enabling things that had physical attributes previously to take on a digital persona. All of which is generating huge amounts of data that, of itself, is of little value. However, if we analyse and interpret that data, it is possible to make decisions to support a specific business outcome. However, these large amounts of data need to be readily available and searchable. Hybrid recommendation engines utilise two or more filtering strategies to create recommendations. Discuss the different approaches to creating a hybrid system.
