VPNs are structurally ill-suited for IoT and OT environments with thousands of headless devices. Norwegian MVNO IXT has teamed up with Zscaler, Illumio and Shift Security to bring Zero Trust enforcement directly to the SIM level. A look at the technology, practical implications and market context.
OpenAI missed its user targets, Anthropic is raising prices and struggling with outages – the big AI providers are under pressure. Teams that built smart devices on cloud AI are feeling it first. An analysis of what is changing and what it means for IoT projects.
Italy’s consumer protection authority AGCM has opened formal proceedings against Vorwerk over the shutdown of cloud services for Neato robot vacuums. The case could set a precedent for the entire IoT industry. Notably, Vorwerk had already announced a voluntary exchange program one day before authorities conducted searches.
IoT battery life: Five factors determine whether your trackers deliver what the datasheet promises – transmission interval, network quality, sleep modes, temperature, and protocol choice. What decision-makers need to know about PSM, eDRX, Exponential Backoff, and battery chemistry before buying.
The FCC has named ioXt Alliance as the new lead administrator of the U.S. Cyber Trust Mark – the IoT security label mandatory for all U.S. federal suppliers from 2027. Behind the restart lies a political contradiction: the same FCC chairman who blocked the old program now cites national security – while ioXt itself certifies Chinese members.
The global cellular IoT antenna market surpassed 757 million units in 2025, up 23 percent year-on-year. A new Berg Insight study shows which segments are growing, how M&A is reshaping the vendor landscape, and why software tools for antenna design are gaining ground.
From May 20, 2026, millions of older Kindle devices will no longer be able to load books – even though the hardware works perfectly. What sounds like a footnote is a structural problem across the entire IoT: connected devices live and die with their manufacturer’s servers. An analysis covering law, technology, and alternatives.
A peer-reviewed study from Toronto Metropolitan University benchmarked five AI models against static analysis tools for detecting security threats in smart home automation rules. The findings are a sober reality check — and point toward a hybrid architecture that delivers measurable results.
Four astronauts are heading to the Moon – but there’s far more on board Artemis II than a crew. European and German sensor technology turns the mission into a flying test platform: DLR radiation detectors, a Berlin CubeSat, and NASA wearables show how IoT principles are reaching deep space.
Since March 23, 2026, the FCC no longer authorizes new consumer router models produced outside the United States. The official reason: national security. But security experts are skeptical – the real problem isn’t where routers are made, it’s that nobody maintains them properly.
