IoT Security Cookbook: Part 3. Nutshell Hardening

WHEN: 19.11.2020, 2 pm CEST
INFO: visit the event website

ARE YOU AFRAID OF ACTIVE AND PASSIVE ATTACKS ON YOUR IOT DEVICES?

In the 3rd part of the IoT Security webinar, we’ll cover the topics related to hardening the shell of IoT device – our proverbial nut – against attempts to compromise its content.

At the end of the day, even the most modern and connected instruments are just “things”, and that physical aspect opens up a lot of malicious opportunities. However, we are far from defenseless against attackers. Understanding their way of thinking allows us to design and implement countermeasures and remedies to all known types of attack technics.

We will focus on security mechanisms at both the physical and software level of a single device and prove that you don’t have to be hopeless while facing the dangerous world of active and passive attacks.

AGENDA:
• Retrospective – the power of physical access
• Secure coding style – the forgotten ally
• Glue logic vs reverse engineering
• Electrical Aegis vs physical attacks
• Blinding vs side-channel attacks
• Hardware & software alliance vs fault & injection attacks

ORGANIZER:
This webinar is organized by the Embedded Competency Center, unit operating as part of Sii Poland company – the award-winning IT, engineering, and BPO services provider employing over 4 800 EU-based experts.
