The growing use of IoT devices by banking customers has had a direct correlation to the increase in the use of the customer generated IoT data by financial institutions themselves.

Internet of Things is the independent communication occurring between objects that allow the optimization of operations, reduction of costs, boosting productivity, and improvement of lives.

In 2016, it was estimated that 75 percent of the population in the world had access to the internet often connecting in excess of 6 million devices.
