Smart devices, mobile phones and tablets are becoming the control hub for the myriad of connected devices and the Internet of Things (IoT) – as are bring-your-own-device (BYOD) policies in many organizations today. But this is creating unique and heightened security risks for IT professionals, such as higher exposure to data breaches, malware and compliance violations. BYOD is no longer an industry trend; it’s a fact of life for enterprise-wide operations and the IT organizations that must support them.
Electric vehicles are accelerating in popularity, and experts predict 14.6 million EV charging stations will be in place globally by 2027 to support this big buzz about town. To ensure the right user has the right access, many stations will require secure end-to-end encryption to protect data, systems and power grids.
HID’s recent eBook titled, Amplifying EV Charging Opportunities, offers insights around the golden age of electric vehicles, the various types of charging stations needed to support this evolving EV ecosystem, and the importance of secure user access and authentication when people pull up and plug-in to charging stations around the world.
