    Internet of Things (IoT)

    £0.00
    Summary points
    • CIC believes that there is no clear and focused definition of IoT, but instead it is a loose term that can be applied in any scenario where hardware devices are connected, directly or indirectly, to the internet.
    • Greater accessibility of hardware will help to further the type of entrepreneurial activity that we’ve seen in recent years in software. The type of small, innovative and agile start-ups that have seen rapid growth in recent years will be able to embrace ideas that involve hardware as well as software.
    • A key differentiator for IoT today and the connected devices world that has existed before is the high availability and low cost of “things” and the Internet based services that they can connect to, combined with more open technology (such as HTTP or MQTT).

  • Spotlight on government funded engagement in IOT

    £0.00
    Governments can do a lot to help progress an emerging market. One such way would be in providing an environment that lessens the load and risk of upfront investment and offering support in key areas such as analysis, testing and legislative requirements. This can help to both encourage and drive innovation. More importantly it opens the way for the broadest engagement especially from Small Medium Enterprise (SME) organisations that don’t have the R&D capacity of larger firms or the means to efficiently and effectively navigate the different partner relationships that might be required. The UK government has invested in a network of “Catapults” to accelerate the best ideas to market in order to create new products, services, jobs and value for the UK economy. Clive Howard of CIC caught up with Dr Maurizio Pilu of the UK’s Digital Catapult to understand how and where IoT fits in their investment and acceleration plans. Scroll down for more details.

  • The network foundation for IoT and connected healthcare

    £0.00
    For healthcare organisations looking to transform their operations with an ICT infrastructure that leverages digital technologies to the full, a major challenge is knowing where to start: “You don’t know what you don’t know”. To build out from infrastructure that is already in place so that it is fit for purpose for the digital future, there are important questions to be asked: How does one characterise the necessary supporting infrastructure for connected healthcare? How do you enable any healthcare entity to assess what they have in place to help them understand both their current position, and the journey they need to go on to reach where they want to be? What is the security posture that is need versus the security reality? In the first of a series, this report looks to provide answers that will enable a clear understanding of the infrastructure that is required to deliver a higher level of patient experience, improved clinical quality and more productive services. Specifically it showcases:
    • The promise of connected healthcare
    • The key technologies and trends driving healthcare transformation
    • The critical tenets for a network infrastructure able to deliver IoT and connected healthcare
    • Where to start
    • Cisco’s approach and solution stack

  • Security priorities for IoT and connected healthcare

    £0.00
    Security – along with data privacy and protection – is sacrosanct in healthcare and is the basis of trust in administering clinical services. Much is at stake when a cyber-attack occurs: foremost patients’ lives and a hospital’s reputation, but also legal and financial repercussions. For healthcare organizations to take full advantage of digital technologies and services, and, to securely support the exponential growth of IoT devices, the right kind of ICT infrastructure is vital. In this report that is related to CIC’s insights into the network foundations for IoT and connected healthcare,  we specifically look to:
    • Identifying how Cybercrime is the flip side of digitisation
    • The implications of a security failure to healthcare
    • The requirements of a secure, connected healthcare infrastructure
    • The importance of encryption
    • Cisco’s security strategy for connected healthcare
