Definition of IoT by Cisco

Cisco is a leading technology company that has been involved in the development and deployment of the Internet of Things (IoT).

Cisco has defined the IoT as “the network of physical objects that contain embedded technology to communicate and sense or interact with their internal states or the external environment.“

According to Cisco, the IoT has the potential to transform various industries and create new business opportunities by enabling “smart” products and services that can improve efficiency, convenience, and quality of life.

Cisco has also emphasized the importance of security in the IoT, as the large number of connected devices and the sensitive nature of the data they collect make them vulnerable to cyber attacks.
