If you think data governance is hard now…

Wait for the internet of things…

It’s not just IoT
It’s devices powered by:
Artificial intelligence
Machine learning
Mobility

The essential four
Privacy
Cyber
Security
Ethics
Data
Governance

To protect our
data we need
to understand
it.

This is now,
what about
with IoT?

Internet of Things
Interconnected networked services, systems, and devices
that deliver:
• Business activities – including access to assets and
their integration into business processes
• Societal activities - sustainability, environment, water
quality, healthcare, etc.
• Personal life - access to interests and communities

EU perspectives
“‘Governance’ refers to the rules,
processes and behaviour that affect the
way in which powers are exercised,
particularly as regards openness,
participation, accountability,
effectiveness and coherence.”

EU perspectives
“IoT governance refers to the development and
application by Governments, the private sector
and civil society of shared principles, norms, rules,
decision-making procedures, and programmes
that shape the evolution and use of the Internet of
Things in a direction that addresses policy
concerns and ensures that the maximum benefits
are reaped.”

EU perspectives
• To guarantee the uniqueness of identifiers which are
linked to objects,
• To ensure the security and stability of the networks which
link objects,
• To avoid monopolisation of data control and support
competition among service providers, and
• To avoid the misuse of data that may emerge as a result
of communication between individuals and objects.

Other considerations
Right of individuals to privacy
Right for people to make autonomous
decisions and control their networked
environment
Accountability and liability for the actions
undertaken by objects or devices

Approaches
Regulatory approach
• Privacy by default
• Right to be forgotten
Technological approach
• Silent chip
• Privacy by design
Let’s see how GDPR
plays out
International
standards take time

IoT Governance – the IBM view
IoT solutions are complex. The integration of connected devices and IT services poses
major challenges in networking, communication, data volume, real-time data analysis,
and security. IoT solutions involve many different technologies and require complex
development cycles, including significant testing and ongoing monitoring.
To overcome these challenges, IT organizations must:
• Develop a comprehensive technical strategy to address the complexity
• Define a reference architecture for their IoT solution
• Develop required skills to design, develop, and deploy the solution
• Define your IoT governance processes and policies
An IoT solution governance model should address these challenges.

Cool so we
just need an
IoT
governance
bus?

IoT governance
Needs to be self managing
Needs to auto-discover devices
Needs to manage privacy on the fly
Needs to manage network access on demand
without reference to a central location
