More than 190 countries that are members of global industry body the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) Telecommunication Standardisation Sector (ITU-T) have approved the OneM2M specifications as an ITU standard, simplifying the Internet of Things (IoT) ecosystem lifecycle by minimising development, deployment and maintenance costs. Through this, the ITU-T has added IoT security capabilities to its recommendations of the machine-to-machine (M2M) common service layer, built on middleware concepts and standardised by global standards initiative OneM2M.
