IoT security for enterprises: make it work, make it easy

Please sign in or register for a free public account to access this report.
Understanding of IoT security among enterprises is on the rise. A higher proportion of enterprises rate security as a key purchasing factor in 2020 compared to 2018. This increase in understanding also occurs at a time when enterprises are aiming to adopt a security-first approach as their USP. However, they are only at the start of this journey. When choosing vendors, they rely on who and what they know, and are not fully aware of the trade-offs needed to make an IoT solution secure.
Together with Pelion, we examine enterprise attitudes to IoT security, as uncovered by the GSMA Intelligence Enterprise in Focus Survey. We focus on what enterprises currently perceive as important security features in IoT solutions, who they trust to deliver such features, and how eSIM is able to address IoT security challenges.

Made for IoT Summit 2025: key takeaways from the show
Earlier this month, Onomondo hosted the Made for IoT Summit 2025, bringing together a mix of IoT developers, device OEMs, module makers and adopters from across the IoT ecosystem, under the motto 'IoT connectivity should never be a bottleneck'. Key themes discussed included the latest GSMA eSIM SGP.32 and SGP.31 specifications, how the ecosystem is getting ready for commercial launches and the impact to connectivity service providers and device makers. Non-terrestrial networks IoT was a topic of focus as well, with the event’s participants taking note of progress being made and expressing high expectations for further advancements in the low Earth orbit space that will help drive greater adoption and lower costs. Finally, a new flagship private wireless project was unveiled in detail: Onomondo’s implementation with Maersk, Nokia and a suite of other partners that will bring private wireless to 450 ships at sea.
