IoT spending is on track to reach $3 trillion by 2025. According to Machina Research’s report, that’s $750 billion more than 2015’s number.

Fact is, the Internet of Things is proving to be compatible with almost everything. And as IoT’s connectivity goes from a business-to-business (B2B) exception to a B2B norm, C-suite executives are seeing IoT applications as a viable way to reach their business objectives.

With that said, with IoT growth comes IoT growing pains. For example, although IT specialist and staffs are quick to flag the high levels of cybercrime IoT can expose an organization to, most C-level suites have been quick to double down on IoT implementation, yet slow to shift funds toward cybersecurity for IoT at the enterprise level.

To mitigate malicious attacks, protect bottom lines and avoid irreparable damage to reputations, security solutions should come from the top, be built into a company’s plans for scale, culture — and most all, be preventive, not reactive.

NOVAM protects endpoints and networks by monitoring and mitigating threats automatically on global Internet of Things (IoT) devices. NOVAM also offers security teams and corporate risk management departments a forensic security investigation platform for auditing and compliance via Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT).
