Buildings Can Do Much More To Reduce Their Cyber Security Risk
The ultimate vision of mass hyper-connected smart buildings hosting hundreds of interconnected devices will not be possible without addressing a wide range of building specific cybersecurity issues. Each system, device, router, server, and gateway, including their multiple versions and iterations, introduces its own cyber security risk to the building. And, without strict segmentation, unauthorized access […]
The Single Pair Ethernet Enabler for Building Connectivity
“For over 30-years twisted-pair (TP) cabling has been used to transmit voice, data, and power over the same infrastructure. It has been crucial to integrating operational technology (OT) and information technology (IT) on a single TP ethernet platform during that time as we have seen technological advancements that have expanded the use of the now-ubiquitous […]
#Podcast 14: Bridging the Gap Between Old Control Systems and New Technology!
In our Podcast series “Sh*t You Wish Your Building Did!”, Memoori explores the intersection between technology and commercial real estate through interesting conversations. Only focusing on making new buildings smart will do very little to help us achieve Net Zero by 2050. 80% of the buildings that will exist in 2050 have already been built, and […]
Convergence of Key Ontologies Could Drive the Standardization of Smart Buildings
“The effective harmonization of building data from different systems has long posed a challenge. Recently there has been a big push in the smart buildings market to develop improved frameworks, models and ontologies for smart building data management,” reads our latest research study on the IoT in buildings. “New semantic data models that provide a common […]
Smart Building Protocols Strive for Greater Cybersecurity
Cybersecurity is a massive issue for smart buildings. Cybercriminals are relentless but we must accept them as a reality of connectivity. What we shouldn’t accept is that the IoT sector helps them by churning out insecure products that are picked up by unsuspecting owners and operators who may have limited IT and cybersecurity knowledge. Facilities […]

MQTT & the Horizontal Approach to Managing Smart Buildings
The number of connected devices in our buildings is increasing relentlessly. According to our research, the number of connected devices in operation in the commercial smart building will grow from 1.7 Billion in 2020 to just under 3 Billion by 2025 representing a CAGR of 10.8%. Per building, this means a big increase in devices, as […]
Technology Alliances Tackle Thorny Issue of Interoperability in Smart Buildings
This article was written by Daphne Tomlinson, Senior Research Associate at Memoori. “Currently, there is no automation technology available that covers all of the use-cases required to fully automate a commercial building.” That is the conclusion of IP Building and Lighting Standards (IP-BLiS), the latest initiative announced in June 2020 to promote a secure multi-standard […]
