information security

Information security on the Internet is a key challenge. Each IoT connected device is exposed to potential manipulation and interference. Therefore, companies are looking for solutions to minimize their data risks. Sigfox offers a dedicated network for data collection and transfer that serves as a protective layer between the devices and the cloud app. Sigfox devices do not communicate over the Internet and yet their big data reaches the cloud. The network ensures very high system-intrinsic security, which is ideal for industrial application scenarios.

Intensified networking and digitalization of systems affect an increasing number of sectors. At the same time a great variety of different concepts, ideas, expectations as well as fears have emerged around Industry 4.0. A look into the newspapers is enough to understand that the profound connection of critical structures does also hold profound dangers. For the future it is crucial to consider a way of using the new mass of data and information to protect these structures. Evaluating big data and transforming it into smart data with support of Artificial Intelligence will be a significant security factor in the future.
