Summary

In this chapter, we performed an integration with the Muzzley IoT ecosystem. We started by adding a relay to a lock inter-communicator circuit, allowing Galileo to control the circuit. We used Galileo as a bridge to connect to a local door circuit and the Muzzley platform. We were able to remotely unlock the door using a mobile phone with Internet access. Finally, we made our custom device work together with a connected bulb by defining a rule.

Everyday objects that surround us are being transformed into information ecosystems and the way we interact with them is slowly changing. Although IoT is growing up fast, it is nowadays in an early stage, and many issues must be solved in order to make it successfully scalable. By 2020, it is estimated that there will be more than 25 billion devices connected to the Internet.

This fast growth without security regulations and deep security studies are leading to major concerns regarding the two biggest IoT challenges—security and privacy. Devices...
