Io T for Defense and National Security

Practical case-based guide illustrating the challenges and solutions of adopting Io T in both secure and hostile environments

Io T for Defense and National Security covers topics on Io T security, architecture, robotics, sensing, policy, operations, and more, including the latest results from the premier Io T research initiative of the U.S. Defense Department, the Internet of Battle Things. The text also discusses challenges in converting defense industrial operations to Io T and summarizes policy recommendations for regulating government use of Io T in free societies.

As a modern reference, this book covers multiple technologies in Io T including survivable tactical Io T using content-based routing, mobile ad-hoc networks, and electronically formed beams. Examples of Io T architectures include using Kep Server EX for edge connectivity and AWS Io T Core and Amazon S3 for Io T data. To aid in reader comprehension, the text uses case studies illustrating the challenges and solutions for using robotic devices in defense applications, plus case studies on using Io T for a defense industrial base.

Written by leading researchers and practitioners of Io T technology for defense and national security, Io T for Defense and National Security also includes information on:

* Changes in warfare driven by Io T weapons, logistics, and systems

* Io T resource allocation (monitoring existing resources and reallocating them in response to adversarial actions)

* Principles of AI-enabled processing for Internet of Battlefield Things, including machine learning and inference

* Vulnerabilities in tactical Io T communications, networks, servers and architectures, and strategies for securing them

* Adapting rapidly expanding commercial Io T to power Io T for defense

For application engineers from defense-related companies as well as managers, policy makers, and academics, Io T for Defense and National Security is a one-of-a-kind resource, providing expansive coverage of an important yet sensitive topic that is often shielded from the public due to classified or restricted distributions.
