DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nVulnerabilities in OS and application software\, a
 lthough hard to eliminate\, are well known. This talk will look a couple l
 ayers down in the stack to securing the lowest-level software in a device\
 , often referred to as firmware\, with the intent of blocking hard-to-find
  and hard-to-eradicate attacks classified as Advanced Persistent Threats.\
 n\nThe talk covers why firmware is uniquely-difficult to protect\, introdu
 ces the Root of Trust concept\, and goes on to describe technology such as
  the Trusted Computing Group’s Trusted Platform Module (TPM)\, as a comp
 onent to enhance a device’s ability to defend itself against APTs. Altho
 ugh low-level security issues can exist in any computing environment\, thi
 s talk focuses on IoT and Industrial IoT applications.\n\nSpeaker's Bio:\n
 \nGuy C. Fedorkow is a Distinguished Engineer at Juniper Networks. He rece
 ived the BASc in Engineering Science and MASc in Electrical Engineering at
  University of Toronto\, and went on to develop both packet-switching tech
 nology and high-throughput parallel computer architectures at Bolt\, Beran
 ek and Newman in Cambridge\, MA. At Cisco Systems\, he did hardware design
  and system architecture for cell-switching and high-scale internet servic
 e provider routers. Continuing at Juniper Networks\, he has served as syst
 em architect for high-throughput Internet service provider products. Guy i
 s currently working on trusted computing technologies to protect underlyin
 g computational infrastructure in router\, switch and firewall products at
  Juniper Networks\, and is a Fellow in the MIT Connection Sciences group.
