Edge computing in IoT networks is like having a security guard right at your doorstep. Here's how it helps:
Faster Response: With edge devices processing data locally, you get quicker threat detection and response. No need to wait for data to travel to a central server.
Reduced Data Exposure: Less data needs to be sent to the cloud, so there's less chance of sensitive info being intercepted during transmission.
Offline Security: Even if the internet goes down, your edge devices can still monitor and secure your IoT network.
It's like having a security team on the ground, ready to act fast and keep your IoT network safe and sound.
