Top Three IoT Security Trends to Watch in 2018 | Samsung ARTIK IoT Platform
"Traditional identity and access management (IAM) systems were developed to identify humans, not machines. To cope with the new connected IoT world, IAM leaders must extend identity management to encompass all entities—humans, devices, applications, and services—in IoT ecosystems. This extension of IAM is known as the Identity of Things (IDoT), and it works by assigning unique credentials, keys and identifiers (UID) to all entities in an IoT implementation. Unique identities enable secure communications between a device and a human, a device and another device, a device and an application or service, and between a human and an application or service. Additionally, device manufacturers and enterprises may want to inject credentials—PKI is generally the best choice—for operational control and secure updates."
