The low-latency feature of Starlink makes it a vital component for Australia's IoT network, as it facilitates faster data transfer and enhances the reliability of connected devices.

Government Initiative

Australian government committed over $1 billion in funding for developing innovative technologies, including IoT deployment through initiatives such as the National Innovation and Science Agenda and the Smart Cities and Suburbs program. In 2020, the Australian government released a voluntary Code of Practice titled "Securing the Internet of Things for Consumers" (Home Affairs). This code outlined 13 key principles intended to ensure the "security and integrity" of IoT devices used by consumers (Home Affairs). The principles were primarily inspired by the British government's "Code of Practice for Consumer IoT Security" (Department for Digital, Culture, Media, and Sport, 2018) and primarily focused on technical aspects such as password strength, credential storage, firmware updates, encryption, and telemetry data. The primary purpose behind the publication of this document was to encourage the enhancement of cybersecurity measures for internet-connected devices used within the country.

Impact of COVID-19

The COVID-19 pandemic had a notable impact on various industries worldwide, including Australia's Internet of Things (IoT) market. During the pandemic, there was a shift in priorities for both businesses and governments. The focus shifted toward healthcare, public safety, and remote work solutions. IoT technologies enable remote monitoring, telemedicine, and contactless solutions. The pandemic accelerated the pace of digital transformation across industries in Australia. Businesses and organizations pursued the adoption of IoT solutions to streamline processes, enhance operational efficiency, and reduce reliance on physical interactions.

Additionally, E-commerce and contactless payment solutions witnessed sizable growth during the pandemic. Even post the pandemic, IoT technologies supported the expansion of online platforms and contactless payment systems.

Impact of the Russia-Ukraine War

The conflict between Russia-Ukraine caused disruptions in the global supply chain, including the production and distribution of IoT components and devices. This led to delays or shortages of IoT products and services in Australia. Geopolitical tensions and uncertainties affected investor confidence and overall economic conditions. As a result, the global economic slowdown reduced investments in technology, including IoT projects in Australia. Australian governments also reviewed and adjusted their trade policies related to advanced IoT devices in response to geopolitical tensions. Changes in import/export regulations affected the flow of IoT products and components into the Australian market.
