Cybersecurity of IoT

 

Protecting Personnel/Mission from Cyber Exploited IoT/OT Devices

**Click here for Continuing Education approvals**

Complex IoT systems can aggregate multiple sensors of multiple types into a comprehensive information gathering and endpoint control/decision capability. Some sensors are collection sensors used to detect an actionable event, while others are control sensors used to request the subject take a desired action. IoT/OT systems are ubiquitous in the tactical edge (endpoint sensors and endpoint data aggregators); critical infrastructure (SCADA, intermediate network transport), levels of event-action translation (to enable human or automation to make decisions on what action to take), and in longer-term event data storage.  

What are the current and upcoming challenges to focus on with the Internet/Battlefield of Things becoming rapidly part of our networks, the threat landscape, and a growing array of technology-based solutions to identify, protect, detect, remediate, and recover with governance per NIST security standards?

The initial presentation will be followed by Q&A and networking with attendees and participants.
