ABSTRACT.  The Internet of Things (IoT) has recently become a hot topic in both the commercial and academic world.  The innovative new products, services, and opportunities createdby the extensive network of daily-use devices has attracted widespread attention and huge investment from all aspects of society. However, IoT also presents new and unprecedented security and privacy challenges. The addition of a huge number "things" to the internet, most of which have no physical foundation to support even minimal security and privacy measures, simply exceeds the limits of our collective knowledge and experience in internet security and privacy. This talk will through some nontrivial IoT examples such as the vehicle network consisting of many driverless cars and trucks present insights into the key root causes of the security and privacy challenges related to the implementation of IoT, and will also discuss opportunities which will facilitate the invention of appropriate technical solutions and regulatory frameworks to address those causes.

BIOGRAPHYDr. Yanzhen Qu, currently is the University Dean and Professor for the College of Computer Science and Technology at Colorado Technical University (CTU).

Over his 20+ year’s industrial professional career, Dr. Qu has served at various executive level of product R&D and IT management positions at several multinational corporations. He has led his multinational engineering teams successfully developed several the world first very large real time commercial software systems and technologies.  Since joining CTU in 2008, from 2012 to 2014, Dr. Qu has led CTU student teams participated in the yearly “National Security Innovation Competition”. Three years in a roll, the CTU student team has won the finalist among often over hundred of entrants. In 2013, the CTU student team has also won the first place with 10K cash reward. In recent years, he and his doctoral students have published several dozen scholarly papers, some of them have won “the best paper award” at IEEE international conferences. The latest achievement is to bring BS of Computer Science degree program, which is fully leverage on the Cloud Computing and the innovative Adaptive Learning pedagogy and technology, to the CTU’s Online Campus.

Currently, Dr. Qu is a Senior Member of IEEE, and a Fellow Member of IACSIT. Dr. Qu has often served as the general or program chair or been invited as a keynote speaker at many IEEE, ASIS, IFIP international conferences and workshops. He is also an editorial board member of several professional peer reviewed Computer Science or Information Technology journals. He has been invited as a visiting professor of over thirty international universities.

Dr. Qu’s current research interests include internet of things, cyber security, artificial intelligence, data mining, machine learning, e-learning technologies, software engineering, cloud computing, affective computing, as well as big data analytics.
