Ian Gertler, Founder and CMO of Symplegades joins Cheddar to talk about his predictions for the IoT industry in 2018. The question is: will advances in the technology be directed towards citizens and customers, or will they be more company-specific?

When it comes to IoT security, he says companies need to make cybersecurity the foundation of whatever they're creating. It can't be an afterthought, because whatever information is out there, hackers will try to steal.
