The Internet of Things and Its Impact on Security and Privacy

While there are many potential benefits to the Internet of Things, the potential risks are significant. Privacy implications for individuals include unlawful surveillance, active intrusion in private life and data profiling.

Gain an understanding of why security has to be engineered early in the development of Internet-connected devices. Hear how the federal government is developing new regulations and laws to secure critical infrastructure.
