This subject provides a whole-of-system perspective on the Internet of Things (IoT) with a focus on cloud infrastructure and security. Students learn how to design and implement cloud-based dashboards to act as management and analytics layers in IoT systems. This knowledge is applied as part of a design project to develop a complete end-to-end IoT system. Students also learn about security issues such as software vulnerabilities, authentication, and encryption, in order to be able to design and implement more secure IoT systems and analyse the security of existing systems. Furthermore, students critically analyse the privacy implications and ethical issues regarding pervasive technology in society.
