Listen: New Multi Factor Authentication For IOT

Hologram has developed a multi-factor authentication system designed to enhance security for IoT devices. This system can help determine whether an IoT device remains safe following a security breach. The initiative comes in response to IoT security lagging behind traditional internet security standards.

With the importance of security for IOT devices, one company is changing the way we see device authentication. Hologram ,a developer of software-defined cellular networks for IoT, has created a multi-factor authentication system. If a breach in security were to occur, the system would help to determine if an IOT device is safe to use in the future. Ben Forgan, CEO of Hologram said, “Right now, IoT security lags behind broader internet security standards resulting in massive botnets and frequent, large-scale hacks of consumer devices. Bringing multi-factor authentication to IoT solves many of the security and trust issues that plague connected products today.” Multi-factor authentication is a trending topic in the IOT space, and we look forward to learning more at the upcoming IoT Security 4.0 Conference, January 22nd to 25th.

Machine condition monitoring in 2025: MRFR says $1.49 billion, FMI says $3.2 billion

Machine condition monitoring in 2025: MRFR says $1.49 billion, FMI says $3.2 billion

IndexBox expects machine health monitoring to spread from power generation and heavy process industries into mid-sized manufacturing, fleets and rail by 2035. Market Research Future values the market at $1.49 billion in 2025, while Future Market Insights puts it at $3.2 billion. MRFR gives hardware 47.2% of 2025 revenue and forecasts software to grow 11.8% a year through 2035.

  • 01Hardware is about half or more of spending (46% to over 55%), and vibration leads where reported (34.2% to 36.1%), while one forecast puts software growth at 11.8% a year. That mix is a better budgeting benchmark than any total.
  • 02Analysts are urging vendors toward pricing tied to downtime avoided instead of sensor count, which would make the downtime baseline, and who measures it, the clause that matters most in a monitoring contract.

Schneider Electric's TeSys Tera puts failure warnings inside old motor control cabinets

Schneider Electric's TeSys Tera puts failure warnings inside old motor control cabinets

Schneider Electric's TeSys Tera adds fault protection and pre-failure alarms. Its quoted 30–50% downtime cut is a general benchmark, so each plant's own hourly downtime cost decides the payback.

  • 01Predictive maintenance on legacy motors can now arrive as a starter swap: TeSys Tera fits existing control cabinets and intelligent motor control center buckets instead of requiring a rebuild.
  • 02The hourly downtime cost a plant plugs in could decide the business case before the hardware does.
  • 03The 30–50% downtime reduction attached to the launch is a McKinsey benchmark for predictive versus reactive maintenance in general, so the useful proof will be measured results from retrofitted plants.

A $373 ISO standard lets mobile robots from different vendors share a floor

A $373 ISO standard lets mobile robots from different vendors share a floor

A3 published ISO 21423:2026, setting common communication requirements so mixed-vendor IMRs can exchange location, speed, direction, tasks, condition and availability data. A3 sells it for $373. It also covers lifts, doors, alarms and ERP tools, pulling facilities and IT into robot buys.

  • 01A $373 document could give plant buyers something specific to ask for when a forklift from one vendor and a floor-cleaning robot from another have to share an aisle.
  • 02Sites that already run MassRobotics or VDA 5050 interfaces start close to the new standard, since ISO 21423 was built from both and uses the same MQTT and JSON foundations.
  • 03Robots calling a lift or passing an automated door fall inside the standard's scope, so the owners of building systems and ERP have a seat in robot buying decisions.
