Correct Answer: C
C

Explanation:

Internet of Things (loT) is the term used to describe the network of physical objects that areembedded with sensors, actuators, and connectivity to exchange data with other devices and systems over the internet. loT devices can range from smart home appliances, wearable devices, industrial machines, vehicles, and more. loT has a significant impact on customer environments, as it increases the number of devices that edge networks must accommodate, manage, and secure. Edge networks are the networks that connect users and devices to the core network and the cloud. As loT devices proliferate, edge networks face challenges such as scalability, performance, reliability, security, and visibility.
