Description

One of the hardest realities of implementing IoT in the DoD is that so many defense assets already exist and are either dumb (no on-asset processing) or are unconnected (no wireless way to get data from the asset’s processors to the outside world) or are a combination of dumb and unconnected. Our proposal is to deliver a “system architecture” capable of providing a secure, end-to-end, IoT System composed of an edge device module, network connection, device management, device authentication and device security, and the server-side tools to observe and manage that device and the assets to which it will be connected. The system architecture and proposed implementation methodology will be compatible with legacy equipment and on-going operational environments. While applicable to new acquisitions, our innovation is the ability to connect unconnected “things” in a legacy environment securely, safely, and cost effectively. Our architecture will deal with the design, development, manufacturing as well as the deployment, management and lifecycle (cradle to grave) management of the “system”.
