1 The Internet of Things(IoT) BY CODEY DISNEY

2 Objectives  What Is the IOT?  How are corporations at risk? What are the security risks and what can happen  Target  How it was resolved  Prevention- Mitigation  What the future holds  Conclusion  Sources

3 What is the IoT?  The Internet of things consists of an object or device that, within certain parameters, is included within the whole of the internet. Allowing for connectivity at any given point via IP addresses or URI(URL and URN).  Key components that make up the “things” part of IoT  Sensors  Processors  Connectivity

4 Security Risks associated with the IoT  Possible vulnerabilities  Unsecure  Susceptibility to data theft  Malfunctions  Outages

5 Repercussions faced in corporate and business settings  Worst case scenario  Breach of cliental data  Implementation of Malware and Virus  Loss of customer trust  Negative media attention  Profit loss

6 Target Breach  Incident happened between ending of 2013 and beginning of 2014  70 million client numbers taken  40 million credit and debit information stolen

7 Target Breach continued  Hacker found security vulnerabilities in Hvac system  The Hvac in one of the stores was unsecured.  Hacker was able to gain credentials from a third party company.  With credentials the Hacker implemented malware on Target’s POS system.  Data was then offloaded to place all over World throughout the use of FTP

8 How case was resolved  Implementation of new:  Rules  Logging  Used applications to whitelist POS systems.  Update and reset passwords across the board.  Limiting vender access to servers.  Appointed new CISO

9 Ways To mitigate  Determine what devices are connected to the network  Ensure all devices are secured before implementation  Monitor the devices connected to the network  Have regular network scans  Defense in Depth  Employee awareness training

10 Future of IoT Pros  Introduces new products  Time efficiency  Cost effectiveness  Self-awareness through health  Cons  New Security risks  Breach of Privacy  Over-reliance

11 Conclusion The Internet of Things is a rapidly expanding entity interconnecting people and technology in a way that is exhilarating but also brings new challenges for not only those dealing with internet security but the general public as well. Only time will show whether or not the IoT will be a valuable asset or if it will be a societal blight.
