"IoT is an especially promising market for the digital identification ecosystem," said . "With IoT rapidly touching all spheres of communication, the digital identification industry has found considerable merit in entering the machine-to-machine (M2M) market by providing specific SIMs or modules that determine whether or not to allow a machine access to the network."
An important case in point was the entry of to this industrial market with the acquisition of in June 2010 . At the time, it was a significant strategic move for a digital identification company to foray into the M2M market which eventually led to embrace this concept as well by developing specific M2M portfolios.
Digital identification market participants play a huge role in managing the security and privacy issues of IoT; however, the lack of regulations governing this space is reining in IoT expansion and interoperability. Participants can nevertheless leverage their hardware, software and service knowledge to develop best-in-class platforms that better address IoT requirements and follow the trend's evolution into the Internet of Everything.
"Currently, with the experience acquired during over the air and trust service management platform deployments, digital identification stakeholders are able to propose an approach that provides flexibility and convenience in the integration phase," noted . "Based on license-fee models, coupled with a transactional license, IoT integration services appear to be attractive in terms of revenues."
