Cisco improves its IIoT ecosystem enablement

In February 2023, Cisco announced several enhancements to its software and hardware offerings for IIoT ecosystem enablement. Expected customer impact includes enhanced security capabilities, improved device connectivity, and increased deployment flexibility and adaptability. When considering an IIoT platform vendor, it is important to consider the hardware products and services offered. Combined hardware and software vendors simplify procurement and implementation, integrate security, and accelerate time-to-value. With Cisco affirming its stance as a combined vendor, Nucleus anticipates accelerated adoption.
