- Using emerging technologies for business continuity during uncertain times
- Shift from cloud to edge
- Market trends & what we’re seeing
- What we’re excited about in the future of IoT
- The importance of understanding why Cybersecurity for IOT systems is different from Cybersecurity for classic IT systems
- The challenges and pitfalls that arise when IoT solutions are implemented – where are the security concerns and ‘gotchas’?
- What are the implications of generating, owning, storing, and protecting IoT systems and the resulting data, (both internal company data as well as customer)?
- What sorts of mitigations need to be put into place to create a Cybersecure IoT environment?
The question every IoT stakeholder should be asking is: can I trust the data that I get from my IoT devices? After all, organizations only invest in IoT because they believe the additional data will lead to better decisions, improved productivity, or increased profits. Given this context, IoT security is a risky topic to neglect. Ultimately, the level of trust you obtain is down to the security work you do upfront.
In this presentation, Richard will cover the following areas:

1.00 - 1.45 pm Roundtable: Platforms: what platform features/characteristics are important to participants and what are some available options?
We live in a world where everything that can be connected is being connected. As billions of new devices are being added to networks every year, many of these devices remain exposed, unsecure, and vulnerable to attack. And the traditional networking and security technologies we're all used to were not designed to address the volume or variety found in today’s complex IoT deployments.
As a result, companies end up adding layer after layer of incremental security to try to protect the networks they're building. And it becomes far too complex and costly to manage at scale.
To fulfill our vision of a secure and private, connected world, we’ve reimagined cybersecurity for connected things. We’ve developed an infinitely better way to protect, connect, and manage IIoT, ICS, Smart City, BAS, SCADA, and critical corporate systems—through a software-defined, virtual air-gap built on zero-trust principles that:
Makes your ‘things’ invisible by creating a software-defined network (SDN) that’s micro-segmented, encrypted end-to-end, and multi-factor authenticated (MFA)
Spans across data centers, public clouds, remote locations, and even unmanaged networks
Works with your existing network investments, making installation and configuration easy and fast
Join our presentation to learn about this secure networking architecture and how it’s being successfully deployed in a variety of use cases across industries and geographies.

There are now 43 projects in the Eclipse IoT portfolio. Some of them are well known; some of them are more obscure. Together, they probably are the most exhausive toolkit of its kind in the industry. However, with that many projects, it is sometimes difficult to figure out which one to pick for a specific use case. On the top of that, the Eclipse Foundation launched its Edge Native working group in December 2019, and its Sparkplug working group in February 2020.
The aim of this presentation is to help you understand the vision between the Eclipse IoT, Edge Native and Sparkplug working groups. You will also learn how you can leverage the most popular projects in the Eclipse IoT portfolio.
Eclipse zenoh is a brand new project at the Eclipse Foundation. zenoh is a protocol that has been designed to address the needs of applications that need to deal with data in movement, data at rest and computation in a scalable, efficient and location transparent data manner. zenoh unifies data in motion, data in-use, data at rest and computations. It carefully blends traditional pub/sub with geo-distributed storages, queries and computations, while retaining a level of time and space efficiency that is well beyond any of the mainstream stacks. In this presentation, you will learn about the zenoh protocol and how you can leverage it in the context of Edge Computing.
Over the past 20 years, MQTT has emerged as the dominant IoT message transport technolgy. Its ease of use and implementation (thanks in large part to the Eclipse Paho project) has led all of the major cloud service providers to offer MQTT as a way to get IoT data into their services.
But at some point, for MQTT based solutions to be interoperable within a given market sector, the Topic Namespace, Payload representation and session state must be defined. The intent and purpose of the Sparkplug specification is to define an MQTT Topic Namespace, payload, and session state management that can be applied generically to the overall IIoT market sector, but specifically meets the requirements of real-time SCADA/Control HMI solutions (for which it was originally invented for). Meeting the operational requirements for these systems will enable MQTT based infrastructures to provide more valuable real-time information to Line of Business and MES solution requirements as well.
The "Internet of People" exploded due to a well known transport, HTTP, and a well known payload, HTML. For the IIoT to grow at the same rate MQTT has emerged as the well known transport and Sparkplug defines the payload.
Edge computing is on the rise. In December 2019, the Eclipse Foundation launched the Eclipse Edge Native working group to address the challenges that make edge computing unique in relation to cloud and data center. In this presentation, you will understand what "Edge Native" means and how it represents a unique approach to Edge Computing. You will also explore real-world use cases from a variety of industries, and discover how Eclipse ioFog can be leveraged as a platform to support those use cases through integration with Eclipse IoT components such as Eclipse Streamsheets.
Cloud/Edge architectures present unique challenges to networking and communications that are not well met by TCP/IP and the Internet. In this session, we will introduce the idea of a Virtual Application Network and an implementation of this idea in the Skupper project. Emphasis will be placed on Skupper’s utility in edge computing use cases. Participants will also learn how Skupper provides advanced multi-site communications capabilities, security, and ease of deployment to developers and operators.
