Zero Trust for IoT: Why the SIM Is a Better Root of Trust Than Certificates
When designing Zero Trust IoT authentication, many security teams overlook a key factor: identity. “Never trust, always verify” sounds great. But what exactly are you verifying? In many IoT deployments, the answer is weaker than expected. Certificates are stored in firmware, private keys in flash memory, and identities can be copied if someone has physical […]
The IoT Connectivity Control Plane: The New Standard for Global Deployments
The industry has been talking about hybrid connectivity for years. What’s actually new in 2026 isn’t the radios, it’s the control plane. Walk into any IoT conference in 2026, and you’ll hear the same pitch from every booth: hybrid connectivity. Public cellular, private LTE, satellite, Wi-Fi, all in one SIM, all roaming seamlessly, all global […]
Transportation Runs on Connectivity: Here’s What Happens When It Breaks
Why unreliable IoT connectivity creates operational, compliance, and security risks fleets can’t afford to ignore. Transportation has become a real-time industry. Fleet operators rely on a constant stream of data to manage vehicles, optimize routes, monitor cargo, and keep day-to-day operations moving seamlessly. Telematics systems track vehicle health and location in real-time. Electronic Logging Devices […]
10 IoT Mistakes Even Smart Teams Keep Making
A pattern emerges when you talk to enough IoT teams. The pilot was perfect. The devices connected. The data flowed. Leadership approved the budget. Then, between 500 and 50,000 devices, everything started falling apart. This article is for teams about to face these challenges, as well as those who already have. Industry context: • 75% […]
NTN Reality Check: Is Satellite IoT Actually Ready?
The conversation around satellite connectivity has never been louder. While the vision of universal coverage is capturing attention, the actual status of Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN) is a mix of progress and ongoing development. Several major players have launched pilot deployments and early commercial services, providing two-way IoT messaging and basic data connectivity in select regions. […]
What a Modern IoT Connectivity Stack Looks Like
From the start, we built Monogoto to be event-driven. At the time, we had no idea it would be perfect for AI agents. We were in the right place at the right time, and now that moment has arrived. Let me share a prediction. In the next two or three years, IoT connectivity providers will […]
Monogoto Unplugged: Efrat Nahman, Personal Assistant to CEO & Office Manager
At Monogoto, there are people building the network, and people quietly making sure everything around it works. Meet Efrat Nahman, Monogoto’s Personal Assistant to the CEO and Office Manager. If Mongoto had a control center calling the shots behind the scenes, Efrat would probably be running it. From keeping operations moving and supporting employees to […]
Efficient and Connected: The Role of Intelligent Mobility in Building Smarter Cities
By 2050, nearly 7 in 10 people will live in urban areas, leading to billions more deliveries, commuters, and vehicles using infrastructure not designed for such congestion. Cities cannot expand fast enough to meet this demand. Instead, they must optimize every lane, charger, signal, and minute of movement. That’s where intelligent mobility comes in. Mobility […]
The Hidden Costs of IoT Connectivity That No One Talks About
The most significant costs in global IoT connectivity do not appear on invoices. They come from engineering time managing carrier integrations, operational debt from fragmented multi-carrier setups, compliance overhead across regions, and revenue lost due to hard-to-diagnose downtime. At scale, the main cost driver is loss of control over connectivity behavior, not bandwidth. These hidden […]
Own Your Identity: Why SGP.32 Is the Most Important Shift in Enterprise Connectivity
The era of virtualized SIMs has arrived. For decades, SIM cards have been the most inflexible component of the cellular stack. They were physical, operator-locked, and difficult to replace after deployment. Global scaling required complex logistics, inventory management, and per-market agreements, often after devices were already deployed. This is changing. SGP.32, the GSMA’s IoT Remote […]
