Abstract
This analysis argues that the Internet of Things (IoT) is regularly referenced in technical, economic and legal discussions, yet the concept has no fixed definition. Moreover, research within this field has shown that the number of unsecured or obsolete connected devices has increased to such an extent that it now poses safety and security concerns in all societal sectors. In response, and to highlight how the IoT challenges society, this report looks at 1) the economics of the IoT and the overreaching trend of the market’s trade-off between costs and security; 2) IoT-related incidents; 3) the IoT regulation landscape and 4) IoT-related challenges in the defense sector.
