Presentation: Securing the Tsunami of Unmanaged and IoT Devices

Speaker: Misha Seltzer Chief Solution Architect at Armis Security

Topic:

Today, enterprises are experiencing a huge digital transformation with the explosion of connected devices - bigger than the number of PC and mobile devices combined. These new devices include everything from smart TVs, security cameras, digital assistant (like the Amazon Echo), printers, HVAC systems, medical devices, manufacturing devices and more. It's a tsunami of unmanaged devices that the enterprise is not prepared to address for a security perspective.

These unmanaged devices, often referred to as the Internet of Things (IoT) or the Enterprise of Things, are helping companies become more productive. But they're also placing them at risk, because these new devices are designed to connect, have no security, and have little or no way to probably upgrade or manage them. As they can't be protected by legacy security solutions, they have become the new attack landscape, with the FBI and DHS issuing multiple warnings. This session will explore the new threat landscape, providing several examples of attacks on these devices, and discuss new considerations of security architectures with a 'Zero Trust' philosophy to fill the gaps left by traditional security architectures.
