* Control infrared-enabled devices with IR remote and Arduino
* Use Systems Security Engineering and Privacy-by-design principles to design a secure IoT ecosystem
In Detail
The IoT: Building Arduino-Based Projects course will take you on a journey to become an expert in the use of IoT by developing a set of projects and finally guide you onto securing your IoT environment.
The course begins with exploring the popular HTTP, UPnP, CoAP, MQTT, and XMPP protocols. In the first module Learning Internet of Things, you will learn how protocols and patterns can put limitations on network topology and how they affect the direction of communication and the use of firewalls. This module gives you a practical overview of the existing protocols, communication patterns, architectures, and security issues important to Internet of Things.
The second module, Internet of Things with Arduino Blueprints provides you up to eight projects that will allow devices to communicate with each other, access information over the Internet, store and retrieve data, and interact with users?creating smart, pervasive, and always-connected environments. You can use these projects as blueprints for many other IoT projects and put them to good use.
It has becomes critical to ensure that cyber security threats are contained to a minimum when implementing new IoT services and solutions. Thus, our third module, Practical Internet of Things Security provides a set of guidelines to architect and deploy a secure IoT in your Enterprise. The aim is to showcase how the IoT is implemented in early adopting industries and describe how lessons can be learned and shared across diverse industries to support a secure IoT.
Style and approach
This course introduces you to the Internet of Things architecture, helps you build Arduino projects based on IoT and cloud computing concepts, create smart, pervasive and always-connected environments, and finally guide you onto securing your IoT environment. Each of these has been covered in individual modules so that you develop your skill after the completion of a module and get ready for the next

I would first like to thank my wife, Robin, and children, Jakob and Lindsey, for their immense love, humor, and patience that shone brightly as I collaborated on this book. They were always keen to provide the diversions when I needed them the most. I would also like to thank my parents for their unceasing love, discipline, and encouragement to pursue diverse interests-model making, engineering, aviation, and music-in my formative years. More than anything, playing the cello has enriched and centered me amid life's demands. Lastly, my gratitude goes to my departed grandparents, especially my maternal grandfather, Arthur Glenn Foster, whose unquenchable scientific and engineering inquisitiveness provided just the footsteps I needed in my young life.
