Session: Secure IoT: Life or Death
Gartner predicts over 25 billion Internet of Things (IoT), or connected devices, by 2021. While IoT opens the door for innovative new approaches and services, it also presents new cybersecurity risks.From our analysis of 1.2 million IoT devices over the past two years, we discovered many vulnerabilities including 98% of IoT traffic is unencrypted. Medical devices security can mean life or death for patients, we demonstrated in our research lab that we can hack through an infusion pump and change the dosage of medication into patient’s body.
In this talk, we will cover the current state of IoT security, top IoT threats, why IoT security should be at the top of mind for all enterprises, and opportunities using Machine Learning and Cloud to secure IoT devices.
