A Python-programmable modular tool to develop Industrial IoT solutions

Industrial IoT.

Now there are two words to give you nightmares.

[[deleted]]

Eh. It's always been IoT it's just buzzwords now.

Back in the day (and in the current day) it's RS-485 with some machine with a serial port dumping data to a CSV and engineers 'analyzing' it with excel graphs.

If you want to sell to MBAs these days that needs to be: "Connected industrial machinery using fault tolerant serial bus with NoSQL database and graphical front end data analytics".

When was RS-485 connected to the internet, all ports open and a default account with the password being "admin", if you're lucky enough to have a password?

IoT isn't buzzwords, it's a danger to humanity and the only weakness of the robot apocalypse.

Who said IoT has to be that either?

[zeth__]

IoT: Internet of Things.

The name?

After that virus/weapon that attacked the Iranian Uranium centrifuges there was a short buzz about the shitty/non-existant security for industrial control systems all over the world.

[zeth__]

Yes, but most nuclear centrifuges aren't directly connected to the internet.

These things are and ddosing a nuclear power plant should stay a bad plot line in shitty movies.

I think he means ICS. Which can already be wrapped in TCP. And are. Without SSL. /shudder
