The rapidly evolving IoT security threat landscape necessitates enterprises finding trusted partners to mitigate risks across the end-point, network, transport, cloud/data and application layers. This report provides enterprises with a view on the evolving IoT security landscape and the best mechanisms for mitigating the risk and impact of security threats. It starts with the results of Transforma Insights’ recent IoT Connectivity Survey, demonstrating how critical security is considered to be. The following sections examine the ways in which the security threat is evolving, a dive into some of the legislation affecting IoT security, and a topology of IoT security, identifying the various types of security requirements. The final sections provide enterprises with a guide to how security considerations need to be stitched into their IoT deployments, and an explanation of why Transforma Insights believes that there is a need for something called ‘IoT Security-as-a-Service’ to mitigate growing and evolving IoT threats.

This Virtual Briefing provides insights on the IoT 'Transition Topic' focused on Connectivity Management Platforms (CMPs). It will examine the market trends such as the explosion in the number of CMPs and growing demand for low-cost onboarding platforms, the evolving features and functionality covered by CMPs, and market segmentation, including the distinction between 'Thick' and 'Thin' CMPs.

Artificial Intelligence technologies are evolving quickly, and regulators are trying to keep up with a flurry of initiatives around the world in recent months. In this report we focus on draft regulations, or statements of intent, published by regulators in China, the European Union (EU), the United Kingdom (UK), and the United States of America (USA).

In recent years the market for wireless technologies that can support Low Power Wide Area (LPWA) connections has veered towards an unhealthy level of concentration. With challenges faced by Sigfox (which eventually succumbed to bankruptcy in early 2022) the market for LPWA connectivity was essentially left to mMTC offerings from cellular operators (NB-IoT and LTE-M) and LoRaWAN, with the LoRaWAN ecosystem focussing to a great extent on campus-scale networks rather than full wide area coverage. This situation left potential end-user adopters with few choices and little competition between vendors on price. The lack of options in the market in recent years has given rise to a number of technologies that each seek to address some part of the LPWA market, and often also seek to support IoT applications that require higher-speed connections. In this report we examine five such technologies: Wi-SUN, Wireless MBus, mioty, NR+, and Wi-Fi HaLow.

This report provides Transforma Insights’ view on the Public Information & Advertising Screens market. Globally, organisations are increasingly deploying digital kiosks, billboards, and signage to offer enriched customer experience by sharing dynamic digital information. This not only reduces manual workload but also provides a platform to earn additional revenue. Using these digital screens, brands offer customised marketing ads, based on audience demographics. Despite the benefits, the industry continues to face security challenge in the form of cyber-attacks such as phishing, malware, ransomware attacks. Cyber attackers often hack digital billboards to surface malicious, false, and misleading material for public display. The report provides a detailed definition of the sector, analysis of market development and profiles of the key vendors in the space. It also provides a summary of the current status of adoption and Transforma Insights’ ten-year forecasts for the market. The forecasts include analysis of the number of IoT connections by geography, the technologies used (including splits by 2G, 3G, 4G, 5G, LPWA, short range, satellite and others), as well as the revenue split between module, value-added connectivity and services. A full set of forecast data, including country-level forecasts, sector break-downs and public/private network splits, is available through the IoT Forecast tool.

The Connectivity Management Platform (CMP) is one of the key underlying pieces of middleware used by Mobile Network Operators (MNOs), Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs), and even some enterprises wishing to act as their own operator, to manage connections, handling activation/deactivation, billing, analytics, reporting and various other functions. This part of IoT is going through something of a period of transition. This report provides Transforma Insights' view of the changing dynamics of the IoT Connectivity Management Platform (CMP) space, looking at the evolving features and functionality required of 'Thin' and 'Thick' CMP variants, and profiling 16 of the key vendors.

The volumes of cellular-based IoT connections being sold in China dwarf that of the rest of the world, with the three mobile operators China Mobile, China Telecom and China Unicom claiming the top three spots as the world’s biggest IoT Communications Service Providers (CSPs), at least by volume of connections. And that is despite doing very little business outside of China. Every year, Transforma Insights produces its Communications Service Provider IoT Peer Benchmarking 2023 report, looking at the capabilities of CSPs in addressing the global IoT opportunity. That report this year included 23 MNOs and MVNOs but excluded the three Chinese market leaders. Typically the Chinese players have been almost exclusively focused on the domestic market, meaning that they don’t come onto the radar for the global report. However, their sheer scale, and the importance of the Chinese market, mean that we cannot ignore them. In this report we assess the capabilities of the three major CSPs in China in addressing IoT, including assessment of their organisational structure, networks, middleware platforms, data analytics, vertical solutions and overall approach to the market. We also assess their performance relative to CSPs in other parts of the world.
