Frequently Asked Questions

What is IoT consulting?
IoT consulting helps organizations plan, design, and implement Internet of Things solutions — from connected sensors and devices to the platforms that collect, analyze, and act on the data they generate. This includes use case identification, architecture design, connectivity planning, device selection, security assessment, and vendor evaluation.
What industries benefit most from IoT?
Manufacturing (predictive maintenance, quality monitoring), logistics (fleet tracking, cold chain monitoring), healthcare (patient monitoring, asset tracking), retail (inventory management, smart shelves), and facilities management (energy optimization, occupancy sensing) see the strongest IoT ROI. Any industry with physical assets, environmental conditions, or mobile workers can benefit from connected sensor data.
How do you secure IoT devices?
IoT security requires network segmentation to isolate IoT devices from corporate systems, device authentication and encryption, regular firmware updates, monitoring for anomalous behavior, and vulnerability management. Many IoT devices ship with default credentials and limited security features, making network-level controls essential. A defense-in-depth approach protects against compromised devices becoming entry points to your broader network.
What is edge computing?
Edge computing processes data near the source — at or close to the IoT devices — rather than sending everything to a centralized cloud. This reduces latency, conserves bandwidth, and enables real-time decision-making for time-sensitive applications like industrial automation, autonomous vehicles, and video analytics. Edge and cloud computing work together: edge handles immediate processing while cloud provides storage, advanced analytics, and long-term insights.
What ROI can I expect from IoT?
IoT ROI varies by use case but typically comes from reduced equipment downtime (predictive maintenance saves 10-40% on maintenance costs), improved operational efficiency, energy savings, theft prevention, and better decision-making from real-time data. The key to strong ROI is starting with a clearly defined business problem and measuring outcomes against a baseline, not deploying sensors without a clear purpose.
