The security threats from traditional Internet are also applic able to such IoT devices as these devices are connected to the network. In fact\, some attacks are easier on IoT devices due to the limited computin g and memory resources of IoT devices. These threats can be introduced in IoT devices through various means\, where the ongoing data transmissions c an be tampered with or the devices can be altered to behave in an unpredic table manner.\n\nBiologically inspired solutions\, to solve engineering pr oblems\, are opening new doors of research opportunities to overcome this challenge. These solutions are more efficient\, effective\, and economical than the current methods. Biology is offering solutions to engineering pr oblems that were not thought before by the scientists. It's indicative of a growing shift in how humans have evolved in their way to thinking to sol ve big problems by looking to nature for elegant solutions. The talk will cover biological inspirations and aspects from machine learning and social psychology for improving security in IoT devices.\n\nBIO:\n\nHeena Rathor e is a Data Scientist and Program Manager at Hiller Measurements.
