Abstract

A method for Internet of Things (IoT) network security includes collecting information for each network device (device), determining a minimum viable resource allocation for each device based on the information, which defines the minimum resources needed by each device to engage the IoT network and handle data, and for each device, distributing minimum viable resource allocations and rules, determining monitoring sets, monitoring using the monitoring set, collecting updated information based partially on the monitoring set, analyzing the updated information to determine trends and insights relative to the devices and the IoT network, updating the monitoring set, minimum viable resource allocation, and rules based on the analyzed updated information, checking compliance with a current minimum viable resource allocation and rules, identifying devices having violations, and performing same on a continuous as it and automatic basis. The method establishes and maintains a chain of custody for data traversing through multiple network segments.
