The Evolution of Consumer IoT: The Challenges and the Promise

In this podcast, IBM Executive Security Advisor Diana Kelley talks with cybersecurity thought leader and SecureMySocial CEO, Joseph Steinberg, about the many challenges associated with securing the Internet of Things (IoT), particularly when it comes to consumer goods like smart refrigerators and connected cars. After discussing why consumer IoT security tends to be relatively lax (spoiler: it relates to evolutionary biology!), Joseph and Diana conclude the podcast with recommendations for improving IoT security — including segmenting networks and covering cameras — and moving toward a future of secure and widespread IoT adoption in both the consumer and enterprise realms.
