There will be no purely &#8216;IoT applications.&#8217; Rather, there will be many applications that leverage the IoT in some small or large aspect of their work.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Challenges<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Gartner also foresees a number of tough challenges:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>IoT projects over the next three years will overrun budgets and take two times longer than planned<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gartner.com\/analyst\/17921\/Alfonso-Velosa\" target=\"_blank\">Alfonso Velosa<\/a>, research VP at Gartner, said that\u00a0&#8220;product-centred organisations will be the worst affected. \u00a0They will seek to launch smarter, connected products, although this will often be a reactive, tactical approach that seeks to address their competition&#8217;s IoT product. \u00a0However, even for organizations conducting internally centred projects that may focus on cost reductions, there will be people issues. Most of these issues will centre on the normal introduction of a new technology model.\u00a0It will be complicated by emerging business models that will require process and cultural change. Addressing both of these will lead to projects going over schedule.&#8221;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Security and black-market activities threaten to ruin the IoT market<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>By 2020, the black market of fake sensors and tools to enable criminal IoT activity will be a $5 billion market in itself. \u00a0For example, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gartner.com\/analyst\/18810\/Ted-Friedman\" target=\"_blank\">Ted\u00a0Friedman<\/a>, VP and distinguished analyst at Gartner, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gartner.com\/newsroom\/id\/3185623\" target=\"_blank\">said that<\/a> \u00a0&#8220;the IoT has enormous potential to collect continuous data about our environment. \u00a0The integrity of this data will be important in making personal and business decisions, from medical diagnoses to environmental protection, from commands to modify actions of machinery to identification and authorisation of physical access. \u00a0A black market for fake or corrupted sensor and video data will mean that data can be compromised or substituted with inaccurate or deliberately manipulated data.\u00a0This scenario will spur the growth of privacy products and services, resulting in an extensive public discussion regarding the future of privacy, the means to protect individual privacy, and the role of technology and government in privacy protection.\u201d<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Security issues and gaps in IoT technology will push IoT security from 1% today to 20% of annual security budgets by 2020<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gartner.com\/analyst\/25748\/Earl-Perkins\" target=\"_blank\">Earl Perkins<\/a>, research VP at Gartner, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gartner.com\/newsroom\/id\/3185623\" target=\"_blank\">said that<\/a> &#8220;major cyber security vendors and service providers are already delivering roadmaps and architecture of IoT security, in anticipation of market opportunity. \u00a0Small startups delivering niche IoT security in areas such as network segmentation, device-to-device authentication and simple data encryption are offering first-generation products and services, including cloud-based solutions where applicable.\u00a0Large security vendors have already begun acquiring some of these IoT startups to support their early roadmaps and fill niches in their portfolios.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"lightsocial_container\"><div class=\"lightsocial_element\"><a class=\"lightsocial_a\"
