By 2020, experts forecast that up to 28 billion devices will be connected to the Internet, with only one third of them being computers, smartphones, smartwatches, and tablets. The remaining two thirds will be other "devices" - sensors, terminals, household appliances, thermostats, televisions, automobiles, production machinery, urban infrastructure and many other "things", which traditionally have not been Internet enabled.This "Internet of Things" (IoT) represents a remarkable transformation of the way in which our world will soon interact. Much like the World Wide Web connected computers to networks, and the next evolution mobile devices connected people to the Internet and other people, IoT looks poised to interconnect devices, people, environments, virtual objects and machines in ways that only science fiction writers could have imagined. In a nutshell the Internet of Things (IoT) is the convergence of connecting people, things, data and processes; it is transforming our life, business and everything in between. Secure and Smart IoT explores many aspects of the Internet of Things and explains many of the complicated principles of IoT and the new advancements in IoT including using Fog Computing, AI and Blockchain technology.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
"I have watched Prof. Banafa's passion for IoT over the past years as he researched IoT markets with special focus on Industrial IoT with his articles, talks, and teaching. Read this book to understand IoT solutions, as Prof. Banafa demysti?es the grey areas of Edge, Fog and Cloud and drills down to provide clarity to the integration of new technologies such as Blockchain and Arti?cial Intelligence on how they ?t to make IoT secure. Treasure this book as you will be rereading and coming back to it several times as you build the connected world of the Internet of Things." -Sudha Jamthe, CEO, Author IoT Disruptions and Stanford Continuing Studies IoT and AV Business Instructor -- Sudha Jamthe "Secure and Smart Internet of Things (IoT): Using Blockchain and AI" by Prof Banafa is one such book that has covered various types of emerging technologies, their convergence, and the supporting technologies like Mist and Fog Computing, that have emerged to take AI from the cloud to the edge. I have known Prof Banafa for many years and have a deep appreciation for his ability to mix academics with industry use-cases to make them relevant for applications in various domains. Apart from being a "#1 Voice to Follow in Tech" on LinkedIn, his prophecies of technology evolution have been very accurate. In this book, he shares his valuable technology insights that will be very useful to aspiring innovators to set them thinking on the right path. My advice to readers is to relate the technologies discussed here, in context of their own ideas and visions, to discover how they can play an instrumental role in building the emerging new world that will bring peace, joy, and happiness to all."-Sudhir Kadam, Silicon Valley Emerging Tech Expert -- Sudhir Kadam "In Secure and Smart Internet of Things (IoT) using Blockchain and AI, Ahmed, a seasoned and revered stalwart on IoT and cybersecurity chronicles the vanguard of what science ?ctionists once called Skynet: the set of technologies converging at warp speed to create a massive intelligent machine or device network. The revolution of "Internet of Things" is amassing to some 28 billion devices by 2020 according to some experts. This ubiquity presents a Cambrian explosion: an unprecedented economic opportunity and is consequently poised to spark an arms race in cybercrime or cyberwars. It is crucial to grasp the magnitude of the cybersecurity risks and the challenge device manufacturers face. Imagine for a moment the chaos that would ensue when a rogue entity commandeers a system of autonomous vehicles operating in a smart city. Worse yet, imagine a world of interconnected healthcare systems being hijacked and mission critical information for patient treatment is held ransom or is compromised. There is no question that we approach a world where cybercrime and cyberwar is dire. Its no longer science ?ction. Thanks to Ahmed who has done most of the homework for us in presenting a cogent methodology to counter this formidable threat. To anyone from (smart)home-owners to business-owners and in between - Secure and Smart Internet of Things using Blockchain and AI is the call to action!" -Abood Quraini, Senior Manager at NVIDIA -- Abood Quraini "For those who follow technology issues on social media and in academic circles, Professor Ahmed Banafa is widely known as a "must read." He has the unique ability to write about challenging scientific and technical concepts and translate them into insightful and clear terms that all readers can experience. Professor Banafa's new book, Secure and Smart Internet of Things (IoT) Using Blockchain and AI, exemplifies this capability and provides an inspiring guide to two emerging technologies impacting both the performance and security of The Internet of Things.
Generally defined, the Internet of Things (IoT) refers to the general idea of things that are readable, recognizable, locatable, addressable, and/or controllable via the Internet. It encompasses devices, sensors, people, data, and machines. According to Gartner, there is expected to be nearly 26 billion networked devices on the IoT by 2020, giving any business, no matter the industry, access to endless amounts of vital, real-time data about their company and customers. Inside and outside the workplace, the IoT has the potential to change the way we work and live. Professor Banafa takes readers on a deep dive of the IoT value chain connectivity implications of both IoT and the Industrial Internet of things (IIoT). He analyses in great detail the benefits and risk associated with the billions of networked sensors and devices comprising the current and future IoT landscape.
The second part of Professor Banafa's book explores the emerging technologies of fog computing, artificial intelligence, and blockchain and offers an assessment of ho these technologies impact that status and security issues surrounding IoT. All of these technologies are both intriguing and disruptive. Professor Banafa elaborates on the numerous possibilities for blockchain in navigating and protecting the emerging internet of things as it touches both government and industry. My particular interest is in the cybersecurity aspects of emerging technologies and securing IoT and this book clearly is educational in providing direction and ideas in that area.
I most highly recommend Professor Ahmed Banafa's book Secure and Smart Internet of Things (IoT) Using Blockchain and AI for anyone interested in technology and security issues as we enter the Fourth Industrial Revolution. It serves as both an informative compass and an enjoyable read."

Adjunct Faculty in the graduate Applied Intelligence Program at Georgetown University, USA -- Chuck Brooks "This book is one of the best I have ever read. I even shared it with 2 professors in NJ and they want to use your book as part of their education which I told them they have to get your approval. But after taking a long time reading page to page, it is by far the best book I have read in past 5 years. Congratulations".
