Gartner expects the Internet of Things (IoT) to drive a convergence of IT, physical and industrial control security practices over the next several years. Most of the devices are unlikely to pose security threats, but many will intersect with enterprise networks in the form of smart heating and lighting systems, industrial robots and personal devices such as fitness bands and smartwatches. The massive number of devices that will need to be managed in this way could pose new problems. The challenge for IT is less about technology and more about getting ahead of the security curve.”]
