In the course of a recent study, IDC presents best practices and provides IT and business decision-makers with recommendations for the successful implementation of IoT initiatives.

The tenor of the study: German companies want to overcome their teething problems in terms of IoT projects and are pursuing ambitious implementation plans for this year.

However, a well thought-out technological approach is needed to be able to realize the plans. IoT platforms, connectivity, edge computing, security and blockchain have been identified as key drivers.

Blockchain is an innovative way to improve the security of IoT data and, according to the study authors, should definitely be considered in IoT security concepts.
