Description: Device management involves the administration of devices on a network to ensure they are secure and functioning properly. This process is fundamental in the context of the Internet of Things (IoT), where a variety of connected devices, from appliances to security systems, interact with each other and with users. Proper management of these devices includes configuration, monitoring, and maintenance of their security, ensuring they are protected against cyber threats. Additionally, device management encompasses software and firmware updates, identity and access management, as well as the implementation of security policies that regulate how devices communicate and share data. The importance of this management lies in the increasing reliance on technology in everyday life and in various business environments, where the vulnerability of a single device can compromise an entire network. Therefore, a proactive approach to device management is essential to mitigate risks and ensure the integrity of information and the functionality of interconnected systems.
