20 Oct Some Good News about IoT Security
Episode 33
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.

Here’s What We’ll Cover in this Video:
- How IoT security is like PC security 20 years ago.
- The top issues in IoT security today.
- The three main characteristics that make IoT security different – the second one is both a help and a hindrance at the same time.
