Why is IoT important?
IoT has enabled the
physical world to meet the digital world in collaboration. It provides benefits
to organizations by allowing them to work and simplify their work. As IoT grows
exponentially year on year, businesses are taking advantage of the incredible
business benefits it can deliver. Here are some of the most important benefits
of IoT:
• Create new business models and revenue streams
• Improve business decisions and insights based on IoT data.
• To increase productivity and efficiency of business
operations
• To improve customer experience
Although global IoT spending has been affected by the
economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, IDC's analysis shows that it will
reach a CAGR of 11.3% over the forecast period 2020-2024.
What are IoT devices?
IoT devices are hardware devices, such as sensors,
appliances, devices and other machines that collect and exchange data over the
Internet. They are designed for certain applications that can be connected to
other IoT devices. For example, an IoT device in your car can detect oncoming
traffic and send an instant message to the person you're about to see about an
upcoming delay.
How do IoT devices
work?
Different IoT devices have different functions, but they all
have similarities in terms of how they work. First, IoT devices are physical
objects that see what is happening in the physical world. They have integrated
processors, network cards, and hardware, and are often connected to Dynamic
Host Configuration Protocol servers. It also requires an IP address to work on
the network.
Many IoT devices are programmed and controlled through
software. For example, an app on your smartphone to control the lights in your
home. Some tools are also built into the web server, eliminating the need for
external applications. For example, the light turns on immediately when you
enter the room.

What is a Next-Generation Firewall?
A
next-generation firewall ngfw is a network security device that offers
capabilities beyond traditional stateful firewalls. While traditional firewalls
typically provide stateful inspection of inbound and outbound network traffic,
next-generation firewalls include additional capabilities such as application
detection and control, integrated attack prevention, and crowd-sourced threat
intelligence.
What is a Next-Generation Firewall?
Traditional
firewalls provide stateful inspection of network traffic. It allows or blocks
traffic based on status, ports, and protocols, filtering based on rules set by
the administrator.
Next-generation
firewalls (NGFWs) can do this and much more. In addition to access control,
NGFWs can block modern threats such as advanced malware and application layer
attacks. As defined by Gartner, a next-generation firewall should include:
Standard firewall capabilities such as stateful inspection
Integrated
intrusion prevention
Application
awareness and control to detect and block risky apps
Sources of
threat intelligence
Upgrade
paths to include future intelligence feeds
Techniques
to address evolving security threats
The primary
role of a firewall is to prevent security breaches and protect your business.
However, because prevention measures are never 100% effective, your firewall
must also have the advanced capabilities to quickly detect when advanced
malware evades your first line of defense. Invest in a firewall with the
following features:
What should you look for in a
next-generation firewall?
Prevention
that stops attacks before they get in
Best-in-class
integrated next-generation IPS to find and stop hidden threats fast
URL
filtering to enforce policies on hundreds of millions of URLs
Built-in
sandboxing and advanced malware protection Protection that continuously
analyzes file behavior to find and eliminate threats fast
A
world-class threat intelligence organization that provides your firewall with
up-to-date information to stop new threats.
