Without __________ IoT devices can easily lead to catastrophe.

Effective IoT operation hinges on managing devices throughout their life cycle. A robust device management system provides centralized control to securely onboard devices, manage identities and credentials, configure settings, push firmware updates, and monitor health. Without this management, devices can remain unpatched, misconfigured, or insecure, so a single compromised device or misstep can cascade into a larger failure. The cloud alone doesn’t automatically handle on-device provisioning and policy enforcement, and having software on devices isn’t enough without coordinated governance. Simply having devices isn’t enough—you need a management framework to orchestrate, secure, and observe them.
