Seminar: IoT SAFE – Robust and Effective IoT Security at Scale
Wednesday, 26 February 2020 | 13:30 – 15:00
Fira Gran Via, Conference Centre CC1.1, South Entrance (Level 1)
This seminar explores how the SIM can be used as a hardware secure element, or ‘Root of Trust’, to provide end-to-end protection for IoT data communications.
IoT SAFE (IoT SIM Applet For Secure End-2-End Communication), which has been developed by the mobile industry, enables IoT device manufacturers and IoT service providers to leverage the SIM as a robust, scalable and standardised hardware Root of Trust for IoT solutions – rather than proprietary security mechanisms which can increase cost, workload and complexity.
Join this seminar to understand how your company can utilise IoT SAFE and learn from leading industry experts about:
- IoT SAFE and the security capabilities of the SIM
- Cross-industry enablement of IoT SAFE
- IoT SAFE use cases from key IoT vertical markets

Fira Gran Via, Hall 8.0, Theatre F
The goal of the GUTMA Connected Skies conference is to strengthen the bridge between telcos and aviators. Namely, inviting a 150 visionaries and doers from these sectors to articulate common business opportunities and deliverables. Connected Skies also aims to cross-pollinate these two industries and channel the drive of manned and unmanned aviation into a consensual direction. At the end of the event, participants in both sectors should be able to provide concrete answers to the following question: "How can the telecommunication industry contribute to the safe, secure, and efficient integration of new unmanned aircraft and operators into the airspace?" The event is designed to foster learning opportunities, candid discussions, and collaboration between participants. The day is dedicated to explaining key trends and concepts of NextGen telecommunication and unmanned aviation at an appropriate management level.

Smart Farming: Weed Elimination with 5G Autonomous Robots The project deploys a Robotti robot, a diesel-hydraulics autonomous tool carrier from Danish development company, Agrointelli . The robot was fitted with cameras, to capture images of the plants in the ground, and precision sprayers connected to a tank of herbicide. The image data captured by the camera is sent from the robot to an edge computing server via the 5G connection. Within the edge server, the data is processed through a machine learning algorithm using a complete classification model. In this model, the machine is “trained” to recognise potato plants and deploy a precision application of herbicide. |
