- Monthly reports: ensuring consistency with vendors and operators when producing reports and invoices
- Communicating and working with vendors to link intelligent systems and solutions sourced from different partners
WORKSHOP B
12:00 pm - 2:30 pm Cyber Security and Managing IoT in Smart Buildings
As the influence and technology associated with the Internet of Things continues to grow in the smart building industry, security is increasingly needed to be put forward as a priority rather than an afterthought in the design process of a system. With multiple entry points to the network including intelligent building equipment, building and energy management systems, security systems, lighting, Audio-visual, fire safety and associated operational technology. This session is aimed at helping you understand best practice for design, installation, operation and maintenance of IoT securely in a smart building environment.
In this interactive workshop, you will learn the importance of:
- Understanding the IoT phenomenon
- Making the case for embedding security features in the design and development of IoT systems
- Defining how intelligent building systems should be integrated with security management
- Maintaining ongoing security targets relating to risks and customer demands
