Ph.D. seminar
In recent years, the advent of Internet of Things (IoT) is populating the world with billions of low cost heterogeneous interconnected devices. IoT devices are quickly penetrating in many aspects of our daily lives, and enabling new innovative services, ranging from fitness tracking, to factory automation. Unfortunately, their wide use, as well as their low-cost nature, makes IoT devices also an attractive target for cyber attackers, which may exploit them to perform various type of attacks, such as Denial of Service (DoS) attacks or privacy violation of end users. Furthermore, the potentially very large scale of IoT systems and deployments, makes the use of existing security solutions practically unfeasible.
In this talk I will give an overview of the problem of secure management, and present our research effort in defining secure and scalable solutions for managing large IoT deployments. Moreover, I will focus in particular on two important parts of the device management process: (1) software updates distribution; and (2) device's software integrity check.
