Understanding and Mitigating IoT Security Patterns:
Connected products and services are becoming the new standard. Companies around the world are building bridges to their customers, reducing operational expenses, and improving the strength and resilience of their brand.
But, with great opportunity comes great risk. Security is the foundation upon which all IoT products are built, and if that foundation is unsettled or is breached, user experience may suffer, data may be lost, partnerships may be rocked, and brand trust may plummet.
This presentation addresses available best practices, processes, and tools that will enable us to secure the future of our connected product and service economy.
