The Internet of Things (IoT) has revolutionized the way we live, work, and interact with technology. However, the increasing reliance on connected devices has also created new security risks, making it essential to prioritize IoT security. In her introduction course, "Securing the IoT," Lisa Bock provides a comprehensive overview of the importance of securing the IoT and the measures that can be taken to protect these devices.
Security cannot be an afterthought bolted onto an already-deployed smart lightbulb. It must be engineered into the device’s silicon, its firmware, its cloud backend, and the behavior of its user. For professionals entering the field, this course provides the essential mental model: treat every IoT device as if it is already compromised, and design accordingly. lisa bock securing the iot: introduction course
