Intranet of Things?
The Internet of Things is playing a considerable role everywhere nowadays. We use it in our homes and business. For large organizations worried about security or enterprises that hold sensitive data about its customers, IoT might be too “new” and “insecure.” With the latest findings on Facebook and others its no wonder large organizations are taking extra precautions to protect user data. We also see a crackdown from our own “US” and external governments. Protecting data is a serious business, it has created new jobs and even new products. For organizations wanting to implement IoT and secure some of its significant benefits, this is a hard choice and is a very complicated landscape.
We have seen a significant uptick in “offline” or “On-Premise” IoT / “Intranet of Things” solutions being requested. The more substantial number of requests for offline or On-Premise IoT is due to the issues mentioned above, but how can organizations implement and adopt some of the IoT benefited without risking the information they work so hard to protect every day. If you have seen our previous post on IoT Security, it comes down to a few things. Getting the equipment from trusted manufacturers that take end device security seriously. Next, the software you are using must be secured and from a trusted resource that places its core value in security first. It’s important to have the proper backgrounds in the disciplines needed to make your IoT project successful.
The Internet of Things 100% Offline and On-Premise!
Welcome to the world of On-Premise and “Offline” or “disconnected” Intranet of Things. Echolo has been working with large organizations to develop a fully functional On-Premise Private offline solution. We want to empower high-security networks and large organizations to reap the benefits of IoT. Designed specifically for use with the Echolo IoT Platform, our on-premise utility will enable you to make decisions at the physical location without sending data to the cloud. This is key, and we do not need to submit your data outside of your network! The data is processed and cleaned then stored 100% on your secure private network. Large organizations have already spent countless IT dollars on building highly secure systems. There’s no reason for you to punch a hole through that security layer. The Echolo On-Premise IoT utility is a physical utility that connects to your local network. Once joined, Hub’s or information sources can start communicating with this On-Premise utility.
Now that the On-Premise Private IoT utility has been implemented, the organization can start to reap the benefits along with any future IoT project they may want to deploy. The Utility can be used for a number of complex IoT implementations. Getting the data from the Utility to your secure database is simple, it has full support for two of the top IoT database choices; MySQL and MongoDB. Want to communicate with your deployed end-user devices, such as sending notifications or unlocking a door? The Utility fully supports bi-directional communication with sub-second response times. Again, this all happens without any data leaving your local network!
