PodChats for FutureIoT: Understanding the fundamentals of secure IoT

Insider Intelligence posits that there will likely be 64 billion deployed IoT devices worldwide within the next five years. However, expectations are that beyond smartphones and computers, many other IoT devices will not carry the same level of security precautions – at least not in the near term.It is further expected that IoT devices and sensors will form part of the digital ecosystem. This suggests that an organization’s attack surface will grow as more devices are connected to the internet. How then should enterprises improve their security posture even as they deploy more IoT solutions into the organisation? In this PodChats for FutureIoT, we are joined by Dr Doris Dor, chief product officer for Check Point Software Technologies, to share with us her perspective on how to secure an IoT-enabled enterprise. 1. What are the IoT cyber security threats faced by enterprises? 2. How common are these threats? 3. What are common misconceptions and challenges encountered today when enterprises try to secure IoT devices?4. Can advanced technology such as AI, machine learning and deep learning solve these problems? 5. What are the roles of AI, machine learning and deep learning in IoT security?6. What are the latest innovations in these areas?
