•SD-WAN products are well suited to address the complexity and scale of IoTAs diversity in IoT grows.
• SD-WAN vendors will be challenged to address the specific needs of new and increasingly specialized IoT products.
Commercial IoT networking in the short term is more about connecting and protecting IoT devices and gateways that are already deployed, or will be soon, rather than having to support a raft of new, IP addressable devices. The IoT name has been equally applied to what otherwise are called sensor networks, command networks, industrial Ethernet, and other network-attached devices. SCADA devices certainly fall into this realm. The difference being that these devices are being connected—on purpose or inadvertently—to public networks and exposing them to the potential for additional attacks.
