A smart grid company is deploying IoT sensors on power lines. The sensors must be provisioned with unique security certificates to authenticate to the central system. The deployment team needs to ensure that certificates are securely installed without manual intervention. What is the best approach?

Skip certificates and use only MAC address filtering for authentication.

Use a certificate provisioning service that automatically installs certificates during the device's first boot.

Use the same certificate for all sensors to simplify management.

Manually install certificates on each sensor using a USB drive.

A logistics company uses IoT trackers on shipping containers. The trackers send location data every hour. The operations team needs to reduce data costs while ensuring that containers are tracked accurately during transit. What is the best approach?

Disable tracking when the container is in transit and only enable it at the destination.

Use a geofencing feature that sends data only when a container enters or leaves a defined area, with periodic heartbeat updates.

Reduce the data transmission frequency to once per day.

Switch to a satellite-based tracker that sends data continuously.

A smart building operator manages 2,000 IoT sensors for lighting, HVAC, and security. The sensors are from different vendors and use different protocols (Zigbee, Z-Wave, and Wi-Fi). The operator wants a single dashboard for monitoring and alerts. What is the most effective approach?

Use separate dashboards for each protocol and manually correlate alerts.

Replace all sensors with a single-vendor solution to simplify management.

Deploy a unified IoT platform that supports multiple protocols and provides a common data model.

Disable the protocols that are not Wi-Fi and use only Wi-Fi sensors.

A water utility deploys IoT flow sensors in remote pipelines. The sensors are battery-powered and transmit data every 15 minutes. The operations team needs to maximize battery life while still detecting leaks quickly. What should they do?

Increase the transmission power to ensure a stronger signal.

Reduce the data transmission frequency to once per hour.

Send data continuously in real-time to the cloud.

Use a low-power wide-area network (LPWAN) protocol and configure the sensors to sleep between transmissions.

In the operations and maintenance phase, what is the purpose of applying firmware updates to IoT devices?

To increase the device's physical durability

To change the device's MAC address

To fix bugs and patch security vulnerabilities

To reduce the device's power consumption permanently
