The IoT security opportunity: turning defence into attack
This report is available to those subscribed to the IoT & Enterprise module.
The GSMA Intelligence IoT Enterprise Survey Q4 2018 revealed that security (along with integration with legacy systems and cost) is a top three IoT deployment challenge. Enterprises have high demands of the IoT ecosystem, expecting security to be a core capability of an IoT solution and relying on specialist third-party security consultants to address their security concerns. By 2025 IoT security revenue will account for a small proportion of overall IoT revenue, as security is often taken for granted or deemed a hygiene factor. However, the relatively low revenue contribution understates the actual importance of security given that it is an all-or-nothing factor.

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.
