Meeting Abstract: The internet of things (IoT) has the potential to bring big value to higher education institutions. Colleges and universities can benefit from IoT systems such as traditional building automation systems. Without a thoughtful implementation plan, that value of these new system will not be realized. Well beyond many of the problems created by BYOD, IoT brings now many new security and performance challenges to higher ed IT staff, from classifying IoT devices to managing performance, from baselining IoT operations to identifying behavioral abnormalities to ensuring the highest level of network security. The speakers will provide their unique perspectives on IoT innovation, examine the current state of IoT within higher ed, and identify the key performance and security challenges now being faced by higher ed IT staff.
