After years of hype, anticipation, and steady uptake, the Internet of Things (IoT) seems poised to cross over into mainstream business use. The number of businesses that use IoT technologies has increased from 13% in 2014 to about 25% today. 

McKinsey notes that as IoT become easier to implement, it will open the door for wider adoption by enterprises spanning industry, business focus and even the size of the organisation.

To be clear, IoT is not limited to smart devices such as wearables and smartphones. IoT can be found in climate control, traffic systems, medical practice and even in education. At issue is given the disparity in the device use and the extent to which these connected devices have intelligence built into them, how do you keep the enterprise secure?

Jonathan Jackson, Director of Engineering, APAC at Blackberry, talks about some of these vulnerabilities and ways around protecting both edge and core.
