Black Hat 2017 kicks off next week, and we’re honored to have been selected to showcase our research on the Internet of Things and honeypot technologies for connected devices!

The explosion of connected devices, along with the lack of IoT security standards, has drastically increased the attack surface of the enterprise, leaving organizations in every industry with unprecedented security risks. Never has the need been greater for efficient and cost-effective methods to identify critical vulnerabilities in IoT devices and address them before attackers do.

Join our cybersecurity experts at Black Hat 2017 as they discuss:

  • Innovative ways to build honeypots for IoT devices
  • Automated approaches to gathering the behavioral knowledge of IoT devices
  • Multiple machine learning techniques to improve the quality and quantity of IoT honeypots

You’ll learn how organizations can adapt honeypots to improve the security of IoT devices, as well as leverage honeypot technology to improve network, endpoint and cloud security.
