Edge-to-Edge Intelligence

Edge computing and processing aren’t new concepts, so why are we talking about the edge? Existing and upcoming next-generation technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), software-defined networking (SDN), blockchain, and 5G are fueling innovations in the development of software applications across several industries.

These emerging technologies require massive amounts of near real-time computation to deliver content to users and relay real-time data to centralized computing centers. To adapt and digitally transform, enterprises must develop effective strategies for navigating the opportunities and challenges of edge intelligence.

Security and the edge:
Combat threats, shift thinking


Hardware

Through a series of identification prompts, Trusted Platform Modules prevent hackers from spoofing, in which they gain entry by pretending to be an employee.

Communication

Privileged Access Management keeps unauthorized users from gaining admin privileges that allow them to wreak havoc across the network.

IoT Security

Using an edge orchestrator -- a software layer for management and configuration of edge devices -- ensures your encrypted data stays encrypted when it transfers between the edge and the master.
