Abstract

Aim of the research: the aim of the research was to assess the extent to which Hungarian enterprises use Industry 4.0 technologies, with a particular focus on Internet of Things (IoT) technology-based solutions. In contrast to most international research, IoT automated data collection and automated control technologies are treated separately. A secondary aim of the research is to analyse whether the application of innovative technologies is being addressed as a tactical/strategic issue alongside information security issues. in addressing these two issues, we will examine the short- and long-term impact of innovative solutions on the for-profit organizations. The research is based on the responses to a questionnaire survey recorded in 2018. The research included Hungarian for-profit-organizations that are free to choose how they design their ICT environment, so the regulatory environment does not have a binding effect on the IT solutions used by the respondent. The data obtained from the survey were firstly analysed using descriptive statistics, supplemented by some inferential statistical procedures. The results of the analysis proved that IoT devices should be analysed with a higher resolution than before, and that information security dimensions should not be neglected when implementing innovative devices.
