Our world is witnessing unprecedented growth in machine connectivity over the internet and private networks. Unfortunately, on any given day, the benefits of that connectivity are soured by yet more news reports of personal, government, and corporate cyber security breaches. Hacktivists, nation states, and organized crime syndicates play a never-ending game of cat and mouse with the security industry. We are all victims, either as a direct result of a cyber breach or through the costs we incur to improve security technology services, insurance, and mitigate other risks. The demand for more security and privacy is finally gaining traction in corporate boardrooms and high-level government circles alike. A significant part of that demand is for wider adoption of cryptography to protect user and machine data. Secure by default principles suggest the need for near ubiquitous use of cryptography, thus it will play an ever growing role in securing the...

Overview of this book
With the advent of the Internet of Things (IoT), businesses have to defend against new types of threat. The business ecosystem now includes the cloud computing infrastructure, mobile and fixed endpoints that open up new attack surfaces. It therefore becomes critical to ensure that cybersecurity threats are contained to a minimum when implementing new IoT services and solutions.
This book shows you how to implement cybersecurity solutions, IoT design best practices, and risk mitigation methodologies to address device and infrastructure threats to IoT solutions.
In this second edition, you will go through some typical and unique vulnerabilities seen within various layers of the IoT technology stack and also learn new ways in which IT and physical threats interact. You will then explore the different engineering approaches a developer/manufacturer might take to securely design and deploy IoT devices. Furthermore, you will securely develop your own custom additions for an enterprise IoT implementation. You will also be provided with actionable guidance through setting up a cryptographic infrastructure for your IoT implementations. You will then be guided on the selection and configuration of Identity and Access Management solutions for an IoT implementation. In conclusion, you will explore cloud security architectures and security best practices for operating and managing cross-organizational, multi-domain IoT deployments.
