Episode 33

The more I dig into it, the more I’m convinced that privacy is a bigger issue than security in IoT. Don’t get me wrong, the challenges facing IoT security are huge and in many cases, unchartered but, we’ll figure them out. Why? Because we’re good at figuring out tech. What’s going to be more challenging is teasing out the rules of engagement from the tangled web of IoT privacy. This involves people, companies, special interests and the law – much more difficult and with huge business implications.

Most of what we read about IoT security and privacy is doom and gloom. I get it, playing on people’s fears is a proven way to get a click. Well there’s some good news too. Losing the typical UI for authentication and authorization can improve security. For example, machines don’t care if they must use 128-bit passwords. And since IoT devices are relatively simple, their traffic patterns are more predictable and therefore easier to examine for security breaches.

We speak about our offensive game so much that we forget that we need good defense in business too, that is, effectively protecting the value we create. However, and I speak from experience, the shiny new things seem so much more important than the seemingly dull security and privacy. Well, when looked at from a risk perspective, security and privacy all of a sudden becomes the purview of the manager.

Episode 31

Although an integral part of IoT security, IoT privacy doesn’t rely on technology. It relies instead on self-imposed business rules that govern the way the collected data is used within and outside of the enterprise. As with many things tech, government and law is unable to keep up with the innovation of IoT and with what some call its digital exhaust.

Getting your arms around the IoT platform is still a challenge, mostly because the definition is still evolving. However if you squint your eyes a platform is either used for managing devices, managing backhaul communications or developing applications. And it lives in the cloud or on-prem or in both places at the same time. Using scope and topology is the first step in narrowing down the field while shopping for your platform.
