In developing for IoT, security is not often the highest priority: APIs exposed without care and devices deployed with default passwords become gateways to your network and your data. Many best practices can be used to thwart attacks on your devices, but they have to be thought through from the first architectural design. This session covers many recent IoT attacks, their consequences, and how they could have been prevented. It also explores the many security levels one device can have, from totally exposed to completely secured against physical tampering and identity theft.
