IoT Hope from Hacking Hearts

Suppose there was a fundamental shift in technology and business so big that it created enough space to do cyber security the right way – up front. Have we had enough pain over the last 20 years to allow the next 20 years to put cyber security consideration up front in the business and technology innovation processes?

The Internet of Things (IoT) is creating this opportunity and we are calling the cyber security community to engage strategically in ways that will allow IoT to be ushered into the world with safety for humans, things, and data.

In this session you will gain hope that the world will allow us to do security right this time. This hope will be based on the lessons learned from first hand experience developing a new cyber security standard in collaboration with NIST for wifi accessible life critical devices like heart valves. Beyond gaining hope cyber security professionals will learn ways to become the kind of person who shapes this safer future.

Key learning points:
  • Market forces are creating huge opportunity to do security right
  • Proven ways of influencing IoT security
  • Ways to become influential in shaping IoT security
