Edge computing and standardization unlock IoT adoption in critical infrastructure

Murray argues that standardization of IoT systems—particularly through federal coordination and industrial standards—is the prerequisite for scaling emergency response and healthcare adoption. He demonstrates that real-time edge computing deployments, when paired with regulatory frameworks, transform how communities detect threats and deploy resources faster than traditional centralized systems allow.
