IoT Trustworthiness is a Journey and NOT a Project
The delivery of these better outcomes should be prioritized, based on corporate strategy,
product strategy, available resources, available budgets, critical internal milestones, as well as
industry and market milestones.
Roadmap Alignment
The mapping of the journey and its path during the lifecycle must consider the individual
roadmaps of the characteristics of trustworthiness.
C ONCLUSION
Establishing trustworthiness for an IoT system is one of the key factors to ensure that the system
can deliver on its objectives. IoT Trustworthiness is a concern that must be addressed throughout
the long lifecycle of the system. This effort must cater to the expected changes and fluctuations
in the levels of trustworthiness (Minimum Required and Current sides).
In order to achieve this, IoT Trustworthiness cannot be treated as a project. It is a journey that
covers the lifecycle of the system. This journey must be piloted by a formalized IoT
Trustworthiness Program within the organization, with continuous evaluation, direction and
monitoring.
