Internet of Things (IoT) in Defense - Thematic Intelligence
Description
Internet of Things (IoT) in Defense - Thematic Intelligence
Summary
Internet of Things (IoT) is an umbrella term used to describe the use of connected sensors and systems to control and monitor the environment, the things that move within it, and the people that act within it. GlobalData estimates global enterprise IoT market revenues will reach $1.2 trillion by 2027. The IoT market is forecast to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.1% between 2022 and 2027.
The applications of IoT in defense are wide-ranging, and the industry’s heavyweights are all involved. Applications of IoT in defense include health monitoring, augmented reality (AR) remote training, gaining situational awareness using drones, vehicle management, target recognition, and many more. Smart sensors can be used on military equipment to give data on their health and whether maintenance is needed. This helps reduce operating costs and downtime for military equipment as the sensor can predict when a breakdown is imminent. However, this proliferation has also brought up concerns. Interoperability and increased information sharing make cybersecurity more of a threat, as there are increased access points for hackers, and the interconnected nature of IoT means any attack could have devastating consequences.
IoT can connect assets and make them work together as a force multiplier, giving forces a strategic advantage as conflicts become increasingly data-driven. Real-time information sharing between branches of the military is crucial due to the high stakes involved. It can also increase the efficiency of the observe, orient, decide, act (OODA) loop. Decision-makers will increasingly have access to more and better information aggregated in a digestible format as IoT technology improves. This means that they will have more situational awareness and greater insight into potential threats, giving them an advantage over militaries not pursuing this type of technology.
