Internet of Things: Sources of Security Issues and Possible Solutions - Livestream

The Internet is used daily for many online services: to communicate, find information, do transactions, and be entertained; and this is possible independent of location due to its openness and distributed nature. But this very openness has posed vulnerabilities, allowing attacks such as ID theft, denial of service, industrial espionage, and extortion.

The Internet of Things (IoT) anticipates connecting billions of objects to the Internet in the next few years, thus potentially creating additional challenging security and privacy issues.

The objective of this talk is to describe some current trends affecting Internet security, and point out the sources of security problems, as well as provide an overview of IoT and its related security issues. Typical IoT applications will be presented with focus on autonomous vehicles. Also, some potential solutions, safeguards, and defenses will be offered.
