Summary

Internet of Things (IoT) systems are commonly used in almost every major industry including health, public infrastructure, and agriculture, among others. With millions of devices that are now connected in cyberspace, attackers have now many opportunities to exploit these systems. Most IoT system vendors do not consider implementing security mechanisms in the devices that they produce, whether it be due to restrictions in cost or limitations in available resources.

Securing IoT systems is becoming a critical task; statistics show that more than 50% of the IoT traffic is originated in the manufacturing and retail sectors. Every year, the malware attacks on IoT devices and servers increase by 400%.

This talk presents basics of IoT systems, the protocols used for communication, security threats and and security recommendations.
