IoT Sensorization: building a connected and intelligent world

By David López Ledo, Enterprise Network Engineer at Ikusi

IoT sensorization is transforming how organizations collect, connect and manage data. By 2030, there will be around 8.5 billion people on Earth and 30 billion IoT devices, which means about 3.5 devices per person. Although the numbers may change, the growth of these figures may vary, the growth of IoT sensorization is clear and unstoppable.

What is IoT sensorization?

IoT devices are highly diverse. They can include networks of sensors, production lines, vehicles, household appliances and other smart objects. Each integrates sensors, software and technologies that enable communication and data exchange through the Internet. As a result, this networks create intelligent ecosystems of connected devices. They collect, process and transmit data from the physical environment to digital platforms. In addition, sensors can measure a wide variety of variables such as temperature, humidity, vibration, energy consumption, pressure or presence. This information is integrated securely and efficiently into corporate networks.

Business-oriented IoT sensorization

In the business world, the search for competitive advantages never stops. For this reason, IoT sensorization has become a key strategy in digital transformation. Traditional infrastructures evolve into intelligent environments that offer deep visibility of assets, processes and operational conditions.

In this context, Ikusi designs and implements custom IoT sensorization infrastructures. These solutions integrate the physical layer of sensors with analytics platforms and high-security wireless or wired networks. Moreover, Ikusi combines them with advanced analytics, edge computing and industrial connectivity. This ensures continuous, scalable operation aligned with each client’s digital strategy.

Thanks to this approach, Ikusi enables real-time monitoring, immediate detection of incidents and advanced data analysis that turns information into valuable insights. Therefore, companies achieve flexible integration with multiple platforms, accelerating their digitalization journey.

Benefits of IoT sensorization

helps organizations overcome many challenges, such as:
• Lack of visibility in critical processes.
• Slow response to failures or anomalies.
• High operational costs from reactive maintenance.
• Difficulty measuring energy efficiency.
• Fragmented data or non-integrated systems.
• Limited automation in industrial or urban processes.

For example, more and more companies rely on IoT (Internet of Things) to increase productivity and improve profitability. Furthermore, this technology streamlines processes and enhances quality. However, to unlock its full potential, it is essential to guarantee IoT security.

Security in IoT sensorization

Ikusi applies advanced security measures to protect both devices and the data they collect, including:
• End-to-end encryption.
• Device authentication.
• Access control and continuous monitoring.
• Compliance with cybersecurity standards.

As a result, Ikusi’s IoT sensorization solutions ensure data is protected from unauthorized access. In this way, companies can progress toward safer and more efficient digital operations.
