7. Security Applications & Architecture
IoT applications range from consumer to industrial.
In many cases, the lines are blurring and consumer devices
are finding their way into connecting/communications with
critical systems.
What are distinguishing characteristics of Industrial versus
consumer IoT applications?
What are the architectural components?
What are the security concerns?
8. Security Architecture
Many embedded and enterprise systems implement a security
architecture. IoT is no different, but has unique security
concerns.
What kinds of bad things can happen in IoT applications?
What considerations go into the security architecture?
Are there important components to address?
– Authentication? Corruption? Spoofing? Back-doors that can allow
hackers to control the system? Attempts to steal SW or intellectual
property within the IoT system?
9. Security Considerations for Silicon, SW,
Sensors
Sensor Security: How to verify access to sensor information
and prevent spoofing of sensor data to the collection?
Silicon & SW Security: Capabilities built into the silicon
and/or software to prevent hacking, back doors, SW
corruption, enabling/disabling features, etc.
Cloud services: How to protect the data in the cloud? How to
authenticate and secure sensor & SW information coming
into and going out of the cloud for the application?
