INTERNET OF THINGS (IOT) SECURITY BEST PRACTICES

May 9, 2017

The purpose of this paper is to present a set of well-investigated Internet of Things (IoT) security guidelines and best practices that others can use as a basis for future standards, certifications, laws, policies and/or product ratings. Most, if not all, of these guidelines would apply to any Internetconnected device; however, this paper focuses on security measures either peculiar to the IoT or especially relevant to the IoT.

IoT in the TV White Space Spectrum

whitePaper | April 4, 2022

The deployment of Internet of Things (IoT) networks has rapidly increased over recent years – to connect homes, cities, farms, and many other industries. Today, these networks rely on connectivity solutions, such as LoRaWAN, operating in the ISM bands. Our experience from deployments in multiple countries has shown that such networks are bottlenecked by range and bandwidth.

Threat detection and response in cloud environments

whitePaper | August 1, 2022

Cloud environments change fundamental assumptions in how to perform threat detection and response. The highly dynamic inventory of cloud workloads means systems come and go in seconds. When system configuration errors are introduced during a build, they can be exacerbated and amplified when automation replicates the errors across many workloads. Shared responsibility with the cloud service provider (CSP) creates potential threat detection gaps in the attack lifecycle.

Medical and iot device security for healthcare
