White Paper ? IoT 2020: Smart and secure IoT platform PAGE 10 PAGE 10 Executive summary Internet of Things (IoT) market forecasts show that IoT is already making an impact on the global economy. While estimates of the economic impact during the next five to ten years vary slightly (IDC estimates USD 1,7 trillion in 2020 [1], Gartner sees a benefit of USD 2 trillion by that time [2], and McKinsey predicts growth of USD 4 trillion to USD 11 trillion by 2025 [3]), there seems to be a consensus that the impact of IoT technologies is substantial and growing. Although a significant impact already exists, Gartner notes that both IoT and the business models associated with it are immature at this point [2], hence the huge transformation that the economy – and maybe even society as a whole – will face from the Internet of Things is still to come. This IEC White Paper provides an outlook on what the next big step in IoT – the development of smart and secure IoT platforms – could involve. These platforms offer significant improvements in capabilities in the field of security and bridge the gaps between different existing IoT platforms, which usually consist of “legacy” systems that have not been designed for IoT purposes. Gartner predicts that by 2020, 80% of all IoT projects will have failed at the implementation stage due to improper methods of data collection [4]. Hence, one of the main objectives of the smart and secure IoT platform is to serve as a “platform of platforms”. After providing an overview of where IoT currently stands, with a particular focus on IoT system design as well as architecture patterns, the limitations and deficiencies of the current IoT framework are similarly identified in this White Paper. Such limitations and deficiencies involve topics such as security, interoperability and scalability. To derive capabilities and requirements for the next-generation smart and secure IoT platform, several use cases from the industry, public and customer
