Most of the problems with IoT security are not specific to IoT. They’re problems that have been around for a long time. If you’re well-versed in general cyber, software and cloud security, you’re most of the way there.
IoT security is different because:
- It’s multidisciplinary; security covers hardware, software and online elements
- The business model makes it difficult to implement good security
- There’s no security culture or training among most IoT vendors
- IoT devices probably never receive security updates. You probably don’t even know that the devices exist!
I want to focus on what makes IoT security different.
