Introducing AWS IoT Core for LoRaWAN

Feed: The Internet of Things on AWS – Official Blog. Author: Adrian Valenzuela. Many IoT devices rely on Low-Power Wide-Area Networks (LPWAN) to connect their fleets. Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or wired Ethernet serve an important role in providing connectivity, but these connections have limited range. Cellular connectivity may require expensive monthly service fees which can consume high power and limits the battery life of small, low-bandwidth sensors or devices. It is common for many enterprises to develop IoT applications using devices that transmit data over long range (1-3 miles urban coverage or up to 10 miles with line of sight) or ... Read More
Introducing AWS IoT Device Defender ML Detect

Feed: The Internet of Things on AWS – Official Blog. Author: Syed Rehan. Today AWS announced AWS IoT Device Defender Machine Learning Detect and Mitigation (ML Detect), a new feature that automatically detects IoT device-level operational and security anomalies based on learnings from past device data. Today, customers can use AWS IoT Device Defender’s Rules Detect feature to manually set static alarms. ML Detect makes this easier by automatically setting your fleet’s expected behavior so that you don’t need an in-depth understanding of how your devices behave across a range of metrics to get started like messages sent, disconnect frequency, and bytes in/out ...

In this post we will walk through AWS IoT SiteWise Edge, a new feature that enables customers to collect and ... Read More
Unlock the value of embedded security IP to build secure IoT products at scale

Feed: The Internet of Things on AWS – Official Blog. Author: Adrian Buzescu. Introduction IoT product development crosses several domains of expertise from embedded design to communication protocols and cloud computing. Because of this complexity “end-to-end” or “edge-to-cloud” IoT security is becoming a challenging concept in the industry. Edge in many cases refers to the device as a single element in the edge-to-cloud chain. But the device must not be regarded as a whole when security requirements are defined. Trust must first be established within the processing unit and propagated through several layers of the software stack before the device ... Read More
