Internet of Things (IoT)

Internet of Things (IoT)?

IoT has become one of the most important technologies of the 21st century. Now that we can connect everyday objects—kitchen appliances, cars, thermostats, baby monitors—to the internet via embedded devices, seamless communication is possible between people, processes, and things.

By means of low-cost computing, the cloud, big data, analytics, and mobile technologies, physical things can share and collect data with minimal human intervention.

  • Access to low-cost, low-power sensor technology
  • Connectivity
  • Cloud computing platforms
  • Machine learning and analytics
  • Conversational artificial intelligence (AI)

With IoT, data is transferable over a network without requiring human-to-human or human-to-computer interactions.

How does IoT work?

An IoT ecosystem consists of web-enabled smart devices that use embedded systems -- such as processors, sensors and communication hardware -- to collect, send and act on data they acquire from their environments.

The Internet of Things (IoT) refers to a network of physical devices, vehicles, appliances, and other physical objects that are embedded with sensors, software, and network connectivity, allowing them to collect and share data.

5G Technology

5G Technology What is 5G? 5G is the fifth generation of cellular technology. It is designed to increase speed, reduce latency, and improve flexibility of wireless services. It is a new global wireless standard after 1G, 2G, 3G, and 4G networks. 5G enables a new kind of network that is designed to connect virtually everyone and everything together including machines, objects, and devices. The 5G network will also simplify mobility, with seamless open roaming capabilities between cellular and Wi-Fi access. Mobile users can stay connected as they move between outdoor wireless connections and wireless networks inside buildings without user intervention or the need for users to reauthenticate. 5G technology will introduce advances throughout network architecture. 5G New Radio, the global standard for a more capable 5G wireless air interface, will cover spectrums not used in 4G. New antennas will incorporate technology known as massive MIMO (multiple input, multiple output), which enables mu

What is Cybersecurity?

  Improve network and cyber security with active measures and unique out-of-the-box features exclusive to Intel Hardware Shield, which includes advanced threat protection, application and data protection, and below-the-OS security. Help ensure your OS boots securely and launch your PCs in a trusted state with Intel Hardware Shield, which prevents malware from compromising the OS and offers hardware-based security capabilities that support a secure startup. An ideal cybersecurity approach should have multiple layers of protection across any potential access point or attack surface. This includes a protective layer for data, software, hardware and connected networks. In addition, all employees within an organization who have access to any of these endpoints should be trained on the proper compliance and security processes. Organizations also use tools such as unified threat management systems as another layer of protection against threats. These tools can detect, isolate and remediate po

Client-Side Technologies

  Client-Side Technologies Client Side Technologies are the tools and languages that run in the user's web browser, rather than on a web server. In the world of web development, client-side technologies handle: Web page layout Form input validation User interaction Dynamic changes in web page content HTML HTML is the standard markup language used to create web pages and web applications. Its elements form the building blocks of pages, representing formatted text, images, form inputs, and other structures. When a browser makes a request to a URL, whether fetching a page or an application, the first thing that is returned is an HTML document. This HTML document may reference or include additional information about its look and layout in the form of CSS, or behavior in the form of JavaScript. CSS CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) is used to control the look and layout of HTML elements. CSS styles can be applied directly to an HTML element, defined separately on the same page, or defined in
