We spend 90 percent of our time in buildings. Buildings influence how we live, work, and play. When buildings become “smarter”, they perform better, enhancing our experiences while inside them. Connected buildings drive energy efficiency, reduce costs, and increase safety and security for occupants…. [Read More]

Connected Buildings: A More Comfortable, Efficient Environment
Fairhair Alliance, OCF unify to advance IoT building automation capabilities
The Open Connectivity Foundation (OCF), an internet of things standards body, announced that it will continue the work of the Fairhair Alliance, which was aimed at IoT for commercial buildings, under the OCF name.
This integration will advance interoperability and security within the automated building and lighting IoT verticals by combining two IoT frameworks, OCF said.

IoT news of the week for Oct. 25, 2019
OCF just subsumed another standards organization to bring about interoperable smart buildings: The Open Connectivity Foundation, a group trying to promote an interoperable standard that would allow connected devices to share identifying and functional information amongst themselves, has integrated with the Fairhair Alliance. The Fairhair Alliance works with lighting, building automation, and IT companies to develop a secure onboarding framework for lighting and building control in commercial buildings. (OCF)

Why Aren’t IoT Devices More Secure than They Currently Are
The growing popularity of IoT devices does not change the fact that they are also making news for the wrong reasons.
From database leaks to the hacking of IoT cameras, to Amazon employees snooping on your Alexa conversations, it appears that many IoT device companies are struggling to build trust.
Accordingly, we discuss in this article the top challenges that are impeding the security of smart devices.
1. Lack of Regulations
As covered in an earlier article, a lack of uniform regulations is greatly impacting the security of IoT devices. Since the growth of IoT is dependent on a standardized set of norms, the challenge is really at a government level.
The governments of most countries are run by their respective bureaucracies which can be a bottleneck in decision-making. Very few government agencies have the time, energy or incentive to prioritize IoT, as there is too much information to comprehend.
Such a lack of prioritizing leaves space for the IoT industry to come with its own set of standards. For example, the Open Connectivity Foundation includes Microsoft, Samsung, LG, Electrolux and Cisco among the 300 members. It is, by far, the largest alliance of IoT companies.
