Open-source IoT kit runs OpenWRT, mimics Arduino Yun

A “Domino.IO” Kickstarter project offers an Atheros AR9331 module running OpenWRT Linux, plus two tiny baseboards, one of which is Arduino Yun compatible.

To stand out from the growing number of OpenWRT Linux-based computer-on-modules and tiny, com-LIKE single board computers running Qualcomm’s WiFi-ready Atheros AR9331 system-on-chip, startups are now offering entire modular kit families based on an AR9331. Last month, we saw an Onion OmegaKickstarter project, which has since been funded, based on an AR9331 COM with stackable expansion modules. Now a Hong Kong based startup called Domino.IO has gone on Kickstarter to sell its own kit that expands on a Domino Core COM with Domino Pi and Domino Qi expansion boards, as well as smaller I/O modules that enable further customization.

5 Keys to Guarding IoT Privacy from the Ground Up

As IoT technologies start to penetrate every aspect of our lives, the days of "don't like it, don't use it" have long since passed. Instead, if IoT is to succeed, we must give customers confidence that the products and devices being developed are safe and that their data is secure.

While some of this can be achieved through strong marketing messages, at the end of the day perhaps the best way to address customers' concerns is to place privacy at the forefront of your product from the very outset. Rather than expecting customers to 'protect' their own privacy, we should be providing them with devices that do everything possible to avoid putting that privacy at risk.

This is a serious challenge for engineers and developers to overcome, but it is one that is already being addressed across all levels of the development of the Internet of Things, from hobbyists to professional engineers. By including privacy protection 'as standard' designers are not only helping to put consumers' fears to rest, they are also providing a more stable infrastructure for the Internet of Things – and a strong platform for widespread adoption.

Telling engineers they need to increase their focus on privacy is one thing, but the reality of how to achieve this is a far more complex matter. While there is no one solution to 'fix' the issue of privacy, one of the best places for engineers to start is in attempting to ensure that all IoT devices conform to the Fair Information Practice Principles (FIPPs). Originally set out by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission, the FIPPs have become a go-to standard for safe guarding privacy online.

They include:

1. Notice – Ensuring consumers are made aware their information is being collected.
2. Choice – Providing users with the ability to opt-out of data collection.
3. Access/Accuracy – Allowing users to view the information collected and to verify or contest its accuracy.
4. Data Minimisation – Never collecting data unnecessarily or retaining it for longer than is required.
5. Security – Protecting all collected information from internal and external privacy breaches or threats.

Apigee Launches API-First IoT Solution

Apigee's new Apigee Link offering enables device makers to connect to the Internet of things via REST APIs.

Apigee, an API platform provider, has announced Apigee Link, an API-first Internet of things (IoT) product for connecting devices to the Internet.

Apigee Link enables device makers to build IoT ecosystems via REST APIs that foster connectivity between devices and IoT sensors. In short, Apigee Link helps take the IoT beyond gadgets and enables any device maker to become a digital platform business, the company said.

Device makers face a number of challenges in building a digital platform business: reliably and securely connecting devices to the Internet with minimal latency; enabling partners and customers to orchestrate digital experiences that involve multiple devices; working with app developers; and collecting, analyzing and acting on data from sensors and actuators.

"APIs are a critical enabler for the Internet of things," Chet Kapoor, CEO of Apigee, said in a statement. "With Apigee Link, we are leveraging our core competency in APIs, data and protocol mediation to deliver a new Apigee product that securely links devices with the Internet and helps device makers build powerful IoT ecosystems. Apigee is already working with device makers and solution partners, and looks forward to working with many more to help them become platform businesses". For complete and original post see here
