Meet the Author: David Stephenson

Morse Institute Library, 14 E. Central Street, Natick. The Internet of Things (IoT) — the concept that things can communicate their status in real time and we can act on that data immediately — has already led to neat “smart home” devices and improved business efficiency — but also to unprecedented threats to personal privacy and security, and even global cyber-security threats. It may well have been responsible for the recent Boeing 737 MAX crash. Learn about the IoT’s promise and perils when IoT thought leader W. David Stephenson reads from his new IoT strategy guide, “The Future Is Smart.” He will also sign copies of the book.
