Applied IoT Security

Chairperson’s welcome and opening remarks. 

• Assessing current measures being used to protect your organization. 
• Understanding the key challenges to secure IoT Devices. 
• The importance of building valid security models for IoT. 

• Looking at cyber security as the most important part of devices and sensors, not an afterthought.  
• Vulnerabilities – how to spot them and how to combat them.    
• Industry collaborations for improved security solutions. 

This session will look at an IoT approach to zero trust, including:  

• Device and sensor health  
• Increased visibility on users  
• Real-time risk detection 

• Keeping security at the forefront when developing and deploying IoT innovations and digital solutions.  
• Governance, regulation and standards – the need for consistency across industries for what is required/ expected from a cyber perspective.  
• Finding the best connectivity to optimise solutions and infrastructures – not a one size fits all approach.  
• Strategies for the future – keeping control of systems and devices long term by discussing product lifecycles. 

What impact does overseeing vast amounts of data generated from both managed and unmanaged IoT devices have on IoT security challenges? 

Examining the risks to key verticals from IoT devices including smart buildings, supply chains & medical devices.  

• How does the sheer diversity of IoT devices provide challenges to security teams? 
• Understanding the risks associated with the management of IoT devices by disparate teams within the organization.  
• Which IoT devices have the highest share of security issues and what makes them so susceptible to these issues?  

• How can the IoT supply chain protect itself and customers from cyber-attacks on IoT deployments?  
• Building trust in data and devices through a secure supply chain. 
• Remote monitoring and connectivity – how to manage service outages.  
• The challenges as digital transformation takes hold, and we move towards a hyper-connected value chain. 

Delving into the smart infrastructure landscape and the steps to help secure intelligent buildings.  

• The cyber risks associated with securing smart medical devices.  
• What operational insights should healthcare providers understand when implementing IoT security?  
• Examining different medical device security solutions.
