As an industry, we are not doing enough with our expertise to support vulnerable, yet converging, networks across the region, to catch up with advancing IoT technology stacks. But, as the story goes, the tortoise can win the race.Reggie Best, President of Lumeta, a FireMon company, discusses how corporate and government networks can win the IoT security race, examining “Industry 4.0”, the convergence of corporate and industrial networks, the role of threat intelligence in securing IT/OT networks, and the stages of securing IoT, including real-time network visibility and leak-path detection, segmentation analytics and validation, and real-time breach detection.Learning Outcomes:Common IoT security challenges, including: dramatically expanding attack surfaces and vulnerabilities, a lack of understanding by employees regarding how IP-based devices can be compromised, underdeveloped security policies, and a lack of visibility into the number of IoT devices on corporate networks.The stages of securing IoT, including real-time network visibility and leak-path detection, segmentation analytics and validation, and real-time breach detection.The role of threat intelligence in securing IT/OT networksChanging and updating security policies with IoT in mindHow to “get ahead” instead of “playing catch up” when managing developing IoT stacks
