While IoT is a well understood term and is widely used correctly, it is applied uniformly to two very distinct categories of devices: legacy products that are connected to the Internet but remain highly vulnerable to cyber-attack, and devices that were engineered from the start to be IoT devices that are not only cyber-hardened devices but communicate securely over the Internet and maintain full data and remote control communications protection. This latter category of devices is referred to as IoT Native.
