Talk Title: Trust and the Internet of Things

Enterprises need to be able to trust the data that informs their business operations. Increasingly, vast amounts of mission-critical information are being collected by machines at the edge, outside the data centers, by the Internet of Things. InfluxDB is amazing at empowering us with real-time insights from this data. However, when information is gathered from a large number of devices out at the edge, ensuring that it is reliable and trustworthy can be very challenging.

This talk will discuss the various security, privacy and data integrity challenges that application developers must carefully consider when designing critical business applications that rely on IoT.
