Trend Micro @ Infosecurity Europe

How to Thwart a Cyber-Physical IoT Attack

The Internet of Things (IoT) is raising the stakes when it comes to cybersecurity. The past week alone has seen newly disclosed BMW vulnerabilities which could allow hackers to remotely control connected cars, and a state-sponsored destructive malware campaign to infect home routers.

That’s why, at Infosecurity Europe next week, we’ll be sharing best practice advice on how to thwart cyber-physical attacks. It’s no longer data at risk from attacks but possibly also human lives.

Raising the stakes

IoT is increasingly at the centre of our modern world. But that only serves to increase the potential impact of an attack. Over the past year, Trend Micro research has revealed vulnerabilities in connected cars, Intelligent Transportation Systems, connected hospitals, and even factory robotic systems which could lead to data theft and sabotage and put users in physical danger.

A new BSI kitemark will help improve baseline security by providing IT buyers with long overdue support. But IoT security is a complex affair with many moving parts.

Thwarting attacks

So just how do you go about mitigating the risk of a cyber-physical attack? That’s exactly what our VP of Infrastructure Strategies, Bill Malik, will be looking to answer at the show. Attendees will learn how to:

·      Deploy effective, layered technological counter measures against IoT attacks

·      Effectively align policy goals with information security

·      Architecturally integrate IoT into a successful IT security programme

·      Guide corporate responses to local, national, and global regulatory initiatives

We look forward to seeing you there, stand E60!
