Advanced hardware and secure firmware won’t sell your product; exceptional user experience will. I worked with numerous IoT devices that offered great capabilities. Unfortunately, most of those devices had limited functionality - they were designed by engineers for engineers. It was a struggle to make them work the way I needed, even if I knew what I wanted to achieve. Recently, I bought a Ledger Nano device. It has a very limited user interface - a small LCD and two buttons.

Conference Tech of Tomorrow conference focuses on the intersection of blockchain, AI, and the Internet of Things, with a strong focus on practical, real-world applications.

I had the pleasure of participating in a panel discussion: “Securing the Future: Enhancing Data Integrity, Security, and Transparency in the age of Blockchain, AI, and IoT innovation.” During this panel, we explored the challenges and solutions for securing data in interconnected systems, focusing on IoT, edge computing, and system integration.

Intro I’ve been using Amazon Q for command line for a few days building AWS IoT solutions… Summary: It is one of the best AI tools for backend development I’ve ever tried! More detailed thoughts and experiences Amazon Q chat, used from the command line, fluently navigates between the local source code and existing AWS infrastructure, providing end-to-end visibility and suggesting tailored modifications. I used various AI tools for AWS IoT development and must admit that Q is clearly the best option based on my experience.

Intro In today’s interconnected industrial landscape, ensuring the security of Operational Technology (OT) isn’t just an IT problem - it’s a business imperative. Recently, I had the pleasure of diving deep into OT cybersecurity with Mike Holcomb, a seasoned expert whose practical insights cut through the hype and highlight what really matters for securing our production facilities. In our conversation, Mike and I explored topics ranging from the evolution of OT security to practical, low-cost measures for protecting your industrial environment.

“You’re sitting in the control room, all the lights look good, and you think everything’s fine, but behind the scenes…" Operational Technology (OT) security is more critical than ever, yet many factories, power plants, and industrial facilities remain dangerously unprotected. In this episode, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Mike Holcomb, a cybersecurity expert specializing in OT security, to break down: ✅ The real threats lurking in industrial environments

The Invisible Shift in Our Digital World In an age where sensors track our every move, where digital twins shape industries, and where data is the new currency, who is in control? This is the pressing question Rob van Kranenburg, a leading voice in IoT policy, tackles in a thought-provoking conversation about the evolution of the digital world, the risks of unchecked data collection, and the urgent need for better governance.
