    INTERVIEW HIGHLIGHTS:
    [01:24] At the rapid pace with which technology is progressing, it is estimated that there will be between 50-100 billion connected devices by 2020, with many of them being devices in motion. What are some of the challenges you've encountered with mobile IoT devices?
    [03:16] Tell us a little bit about Aeris and the different ways with which you help businesses overcome the challenges with mobile IoT devices?
    [07:35] What are the connectivity challenges for Autonomous Vehicles?
    [07:35] Dispelling the myths of 5G capabilities for Autonomous Vehicles.
    [07:35] 5G won't allow you to remotely control Autonomous Vehicles.
    [11:50] Defining the term Connected Cars.
    [12:45] Vehicle to Infrastructure (V2X) considerations.
    [14:52] According to the USDA, agriculture accounts for approximately 80% of the Nation's consumptive water use, and over 90 percent in many Western States. What this means is that we're not drinking this water! In addition, we're dealing with a growing population, and climate change, which will increase our requirements for drinkable water. What can we do about this?
    [20:55] One of the things I haven't yet discussed on this show is Cold Chain. We know that when we need milk, we go to the refrigerator. When we're out of milk, we go to the store and buy more. What people aren't even aware of is what goes into getting perishables from their point of origin to your regrigerator!
    [20:55] Cold Chain is criticial for delivering vaccines, as 90% of vaccines delivered in Africa are damaged.
    [24:16] IoT Technology saving lives of children.
    [25:00] One industry that is heavily reliant on IoT Technology is the shipping industry, which according to the International Chamber of Shipping (ICS) is about 90% of global trade! With millions of products traveling our seas on a daily basis, how do our global shipping partners keep track of everything?
    [25:00] Within the next 10 years, low Earth orbit sattelites will be leveraged to assist with tracking of shipped materials.
    [27:38] V2X Technology being leveraged for Port Management.
    [29:08] What's next for IoT Mobility?
    [31:34] Sudha Jamthe, Author of 2030 The Driverless World: AI today is specialized to do one task each, and all models are training offline and run as inference models in a live vehicle or an IoT module. Given this reality, what is needed for autonomous trucks to act in real time, based on their diagnostic data, to make decisions to refuel themselves, or go for service, to someplace without human intervention?

    Phone: +972-72-224-4449
    INTERVIEW HIGHLIGHTS:
    [01:19] Your company, Professional Credentials Exchange, has come up with an innovative idea on leveraging Blockchain for Healthcare. Can you tell us about it?
    [01:19] Healthcare provider credentialing is a 4-6 month process.
    [06:10] How will you incentivize practitioners and insurance companies to join the collective on the Blockchain?
    [06:37] Every day that a hospital practitioner doesn't bill, the hospital forfeits $7,500. That's $150k / month, and $900k / 6 months!
    [09:38] Credentialing is a perpetual process.
    [13:33] What are the major components of the exchange infrastructure? Why use Blockchain?
    [17:53] According to an article posted by Forbes, we have an epidemic of health data breaches across the country, and 40% of those breaches come from people who already have access to health records in some form or another -- what we call insiders. How do you address the governance of the data inside the Blockchain?
    [23:46] How does something like this scale effectively in such a large market?
    [26:31] What, in your opinion, are the keys to building a successful application leveraging blockchain technology?
    [27:49] Why can't you store large amounts of data on a blockchain?
    [27:49] Blockchain is not a database. It's a distributed transactional ledger.
    Questions from the Audience:
    [29:10] Ken Herron - CMO Intelligent IoT Messaging Company, Unified Inbox, Orlando, FL - Hi Anthony! If you were to ask three smart people what Blockchain is, you'd likely get three (if not more) different answers. As patients are one of healthcare's key stakeholders, how do you suggest Blockchain, how it is being used, and why, be explained (preferably proactively) to patients?
    [31:37] Bennet Bayer - Former Global CMO @ Huawei and long-time Microsoft distributor and channel champion, Seattle, WA- How do you separate Blockchain from the cryptocurrency discussion?

    SHOW NOTES:
    [01:23] As an accomplished Cybersecurity industry expert, what keeps you up at night?

    [05:36] Trump's Soccer ball
    [07:22] How will GDPR play a role in how smart device data is collected?

    [31:48] Blockchain is minimizing waste for automotive recalls by enabling us to select only the vehicles that have the actual defect.
    [38:37] Quantum Computers and their impact on Cybersecurity.
    [42:50] Siemens Charter of Trust - we're obligated to provide updates and patches during a product's lifetime. This will become the gold standard.
    [44:55] We, as consumers, must educate ourselves on our security options.
    [45:50] What's next for Industry 4.0? More Transparency. Cleanup of older industries that pollute the environment.
    [45:50] Can we retrofit older devices or replace them?
    [45:50] AI will be bigger than BigData because it gives us capabilities to make complex decisions in realtime.
    [45:50] Blockchain adds a fingerprint of everything we do online.

    [02:10] I've seen statistics, where researchers estimate that there will be 50 billion connected devices by 2020. We've all heard about recent hacks, such as connected printers mining bitcoins, or gas pumps dispensing unlimited gasoline. As connected devices become more prevalent and numerous in our homes and businesses, how can we ensure that they stay up to date, in terms of security?
