IoT Data Integrity

Definition

IoT data integrity refers to the assurance that data collected from Internet of Things devices remains accurate, consistent, and unaltered throughout its lifecycle, from acquisition to storage and processing. Maintaining this integrity is crucial for reliable decision-making in systems that rely on sensor data. It involves implementing cryptographic techniques, secure communication protocols, and tamper-detection mechanisms. Ensuring data authenticity and reliability is paramount for industrial and consumer IoT applications.
