Of the millions of enterprise-IoT transactions examined in a recent study, the vast majority were sent without benefit of encryption, leaving the data vulnerable to theft and tampering. The research by cloud-based security provider Zscaler found that about 91.5 percent of transactions by internet of things devices took place over plaintext, while 8.5 percent were […]
The internet of things is growing at breakneck pace and may end up representing a bigger economic shift in networking than the internet itself did, making security threats associated with the IoT a major concern. This worry is reflected by investments being made in startups that focus on stopping threats to the IoT, the industrial […]
The widespread adoption of mobile and IoT devices, and increased use of cloud systems are driving a major change in modern application architecture. Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) have emerged as the bridge to facilitate communication between different application architectures. However, with the widespread deployment of APIs, automated attacks on poorly protected APIs are mounting. Personally […]
As IIoT grows in prominence, so too does its status as a target for malicious hackers – particularly given its increased impact on the physical world; the latest and potentially most dangerous is called Triton. Triton first reared its ugly head near the end of 2017, according to security company Fireeye. It targets an industrial […]
In 2018, we witnessed the dramatic growth of IoT devices and a corresponding increase in the number of botnets and cyberattacks. Because IoT devices are always-on, rarely monitored and generally use off-the-shelf default passwords, they are low-hanging fruit for hackers looking for easy ways to build an army of malicious attackers. Every IoT device added to the network grows the hacker’s […]
hey everyone, welcome back to tech feed. i’m juliet beauchamp. today we’re talking malware threats, u-s/huawei conflict and yet another silicon valley company is prepping to go public. can you guess which one? stick around. a new report from lloyds of london questions whether or not the world is ready for the next big ransomware […]
With many IT projects, security is often an afterthought, but that approach puts the business at significant risk. The rise of IoT adds orders of magnitude more devices to a network, which creates many more entry points for threat actors to breach. A bigger problem is that many IoT devices are easier to hack than […]

Le tecnologie sviluppate da IBM per le moto Harley-Davidson: cloud, intelligenza artificiale e Internet of Things viaggiano su due ruote. The post IBM mette cloud, IA e IoT in sella alle Harley appeared first on Punto Informatico.
The problem of edge security isn’t unique – many of the issues being dealt with are the same ones that have been facing the general IT sector for decades. But the edge adds its own wrinkles to those problems, making them, in many cases, more difficult to address. Yet, by applying basic information security precautions, […]
