TITLE:
- DESIGNING AN IOT POLICY FOR SANGANI PUBLISHING HOUSE.
PROBLEM STATEMENT:
- The Publishing trade is one of the oldest trades in the world that continues to be in use to this very day: having started with the invention of writing where distributed works were copied manually by scribes before advancing to print.
However, with the incorporation of the Internet, the publishing trade has slowly been plummeting. This gradual decline has been noted especially among the younger generation and has in effect affected the publishing industry.
Even with the incorporation of the Internet, most publishing houses are still stuck with the old model of doing business with the addition of E-Books which are still susceptible to copyright infringements. These problems pose a serious threat to the publishing industry and have therefore led to the developing of the Internet of Things Policy for Sangani Publishing House.
