According to a recent report by Aruba Networks, a leader in network access solutions, up to 97% of about 1,150 respondents from the Asia-Pacific region have taken cognizance of the basic notion of the Internet of Things (IOT). Despite this, many still do not understand the exact definition of the Internet of Things and the level of value that it can bring to the society as a whole or its organization. Aruba estimates that by 2019, the overall weighting of adoption of IoT across all agencies and businesses in the Asia Pacific region is expected to reach 86%.

In fact, many IoT-related devices are still far less secure at the moment, making the organization vulnerable to external attacks. Statistics show that up to 84% of organizations have experienced security vulnerabilities related to the Internet of Things (IoT), and the maturity and level of IoT technology development across industries also show a different gap.

Government agencies are currently implementing relatively backward Internet of Things community. According to statistics, only 42% of government departments have deployed IoT-related devices and sensors. Of these, about 35% of IT decision-makers claim that their senior executives have little or no understanding of the Internet of Things. Experts point out that this shows that the lack of IoT-related education is the biggest obstacle to the large-scale application of government agencies.
