Cyber Tech & Risk - IoT Security

IoT (Internet of Things) devices are widely used from mission-critical systems including SCADA and industrial controllers, to elevators and HVAC controls, to firewalls, routers, modems, VoIP phones and printers. Vulnerabilities like URGENT/11, CDPwn and Ripple20 affect hundreds of millions of devices across industrial, medical and enterprise environments. These could allow a complete takeover of the device and cause disruption. And yet, many of these devices remain unprotected. Why? Because they were not necessarily designed with security in mind, can’t host traditional agents and are notoriously difficult to update or patch.

How can you protect IoT devices to provide visibility and security from the production line to the executive suite? Join us for this high in-demand virtual event to hear the insights from industry leaders and experts on IoT Security.
