The thing about the GDPR, whether we like it or not, is that it’s forcing us to do the right things when it comes to sensitive data in IoT. While there’s certainly a burden to bear, following its regulations on subject’s rights is a guide book on the right way to handle consumer privacy. So use its introduction as a reason to catapult this part of your business forward.

If your company is collecting data, and every IoT company collects data, it needs a formal “Information Security Program”. We’ve talked risk assessment in the past, that is the process of assigning liability to each potential security breach, but that’s only part of the program.
