Description
Technical Architecture of Zigbee Enabled Banking and Finance IoT System
The Zigbee Enabled Banking and Finance IoT System leverages a mesh network architecture to ensure seamless communication among devices. A central gateway connects Zigbee nodes, including sensors and controllers, to the banking institution’s secure local server or cloud infrastructure. The architecture integrates end-to-end encryption, role-based access controls, and real-time monitoring for security.
Key components include:
- Zigbee Nodes: Sensors, smart locks, cameras, and environmental monitors.
- Gateway: Securely bridges Zigbee devices with central systems.
- Data Analytics Engine: Processes data for predictive insights and alerts.
- Application Layer: Interfaces for mobile and desktop management.
