IoT is connected sensors
that provide you with data that allows you make contextual decisions
and then act

But Wait!
@bmkatz
Who does the data belong to?
@bmkatz
Who can access it?
@bmkatz
Do we have tools in place to manage IDM across all of the endpoints?

Still Challenges• Lack of Standards across chips, components,
connectivity and data format
• Security Challenges
• Privacy Challenges
• Speed of the business isn’t going to slow down
• All levels of the technology stack need to come together
@bmkatz
IoTing the Enterprise• Sensor Everything
• It’s the data stupid
• Build a secure API to access that data
• Wrap identity around it
• Build apps that access the data through the API and prove identity
• Know what you’re building for (Biz Process)
