Mirko Ross, asvin - Trust and security for the Internet of Things (S2E7)

Mirko Ross is the Chief Executive Officer of asvin, an early German startup developing solutions for a trusted and secure Internet of Things (IoT). A recognized cybersecurity expert, Mirko is a Member of the European Union Agency for Cybersecurity (ENISA) IoT Security Expert Group, and a Co-Chair of the Alliance Internet of Things Innovation (AIOTI) Distributed Ledger Working Group. Our shared believe is that ultimately, the volume of machine-to-machine (M2M) commerce will exceed traditional (human-to-human or human-to-machine) payments, so it is imperative to provide an infrastructure that cannot be compromised.   asvin.io provides a blockchain-secured update solution for M2M commerce and the IoT, for both the embedded device controller (edge devices) and for server-side device applications in the cloud. Today, unpatched vulnerabilities on IoT devices provide an attach vector for malicious actors and a door opener for vulnerabilities such as DDoS attacks, ransomware, hacking and data theft. Updating unsecure M2M commerce and IoT systems is analogous to applying medicine to sick patients. There is a growing need for continuously healing infected or unsecure devices in the Internet of Things I had the pleasure to represent asvin at the Financial Innovation Business Conference (FIBC) in 2019, where the company was recognized with the Special Judges' Award.
