Security is critical for any application, especially when dealing with sensitive data like financial records or user information. Databases such as MongoDB and PostgreSQL communicate over the network, making them vulnerable to interception. SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) encrypts the communication between the client and the database server to prevent data exposure. This encryption ensures that: 1. Data Integrity: No third party can modify the data in transit. 2.

Raw data from IoT devices, like GPS trackers or electronic logging devices (ELDs), often lacks meaning on its own. However, if combined with information from other business systems, such as inventory management or customer relationship management (CRM), this data can now provide a richer, more complete picture for more effective decision-making. For example, combining GPS data with inventory levels can optimize logistics and delivery routes.
