About
Building a complex IoT solution like SensyrTech's admin panel typically involves several stages and
processes
that span over a significant period of 2 years.
This is how we did it:
- Initial Concept and Planning: The first stage involves defining the initial concept of the admin panel, identifying the target market, and conducting market research to assess the feasibility and viability of the solution. This stage also involves planning the overall project, including defining the scope, timeline, budget, and resources required.
- Agile Development: This involves iterative and incremental development with continuous feedback and updates based on customer requirements, market changes, and project progress. The development team works in sprints, delivering small increments of functionality and incorporating feedback from stakeholders in each iteration.
- Requirements Gathering and Design: Requirements gathering and design phases are performed iteratively, with continuous feedback and updates. Detailed requirements are gathered from customers, stakeholders, and end-users, and the system architecture, design, and UI are refined based on feedback and changing requirements.
- Development and Testing: The development team works on building the admin panel based on the requirements and design, with regular testing and quality assurance activities performed to ensure the functionality, performance, and security of the solution. Continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) practices may be followed to ensure the timely and high-quality delivery of features.
- Integration and Deployment: As features are developed and tested, they are integrated with the existing IoT ecosystem, and the admin panel is deployed to the staging environment for further testing and validation. Once validated, the solution is deployed to the production environment and made available to the target customers or end-users.
- Ongoing Support and Maintenance: After deployment, ongoing support and maintenance are provided to ensure the smooth operation of the admin panel. This may include monitoring, performance optimization, bug fixes, security updates, and feature enhancements based on customer feedback and changing requirements.
- Customization and Enhancements: As the project progresses, customizations and enhancements may be made based on specific customer requirements or market needs. This may include additional features, integrations with other systems, and continuous improvement of the solution based on feedback and business objectives.
Throughout the ongoing project, close collaboration and communication with customers, stakeholders, and team members are crucial. Regular meetings, reviews, and updates are conducted to ensure alignment with customer expectations, project goals, and market changes.

Major Challenge
Ensuring robust security measures to protect sensitive data and prevent unauthorized access. This involve implementing proper authentication and authorization mechanisms, safeguarding against SQL injection attacks, cross-site scripting (XSS), and other security vulnerabilities.
Solution
This was achieved through two-factor authentication (2FA), and integration with Single Sign-On (SSO) protocol as OAuth. Additionally, implemented role-based access control (RBAC) to restrict user permissions based on their roles and responsibilities. Used parameterized queries in the database queries to prevent SQL injection attacks. We sed appropriate output encoding techniques such as HTML entity encoding and output encoding libraries to prevent malicious scripts from being executed.
