The Private Equity Digital Transformation Show

Okay, our blockchain discussion isn’t quite over yet. Let me ask the question again, is blockchain ready to transact IoT business? The answer is still a resounding “no” but let me caveat it by saying, there are newer technologies that address blockchain’s bottlenecks and deployment weaknesses. Introducing alternative DLTs – distributed ledger technologies. In this episode of the IoT business show, I speak with Ashish Mehta about the options available for those who want to incorporate blockchain-like functionality into IoT today.

Is blockchain ready to transact IoT business? That’s the question I’ve been trying to answer during this mini-series. While the quest has been intellectually interesting and frustrating at the same time, the answer is a resounding “no.” Although the tech is cool, blockchain is nowhere near ready to be used for business within the budgetable future. In this episode of the IoT business show, I speak with Rhian Lewis about the promise and challenges of transacting with blockchain, Ethereum, and cryptocurrencies in IoT.

Want to incorporate blockchain into IoT? Well, that’s a pretty tall order but you have two ways to go about it. Go it alone to build the world’s best IoT blockchain protocol and hope it’s adopted or join others that have similar goals to build the world’s best IoT blockchain protocol in hopes that it’s adopted. In this episode of the IoT Business Show, I speak with Zaki Manian about the technology and business advantages of blockchain in IoT and the approach the Trusted IoT Alliance is taking to make them a reality.

We all know, whether from experience or just intuitively, that bolting security on an IoT product after much of the development has been completed is a total rookie mistake and a recipe for disaster. Yet this still happens. By crowdfunded startups who don’t mention security in their videos, to internal teams in larger enterprises who also emphasize the bling in order to get their project greenlit from within. In this episode of the IoT Business Show, I speak with Chris Romeo about the Security Development Lifecycle, the polar opposite to the bolt-on, that’s been successfully used in IT security for years.
