Federated Learning, the security asset for local maintenance of your data

Predictive maintenance, coupled with the Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI), represents a revolutionary approach to equipment maintenance. Traditionally, maintenance has been performed on a fixed schedule or in response to failures, leading to inefficiencies and downtime. Predictive maintenance aims to address these shortcomings by leveraging IoT sensors and AI algorithms to predict
