Mitigating M2M Security Risks in Critical Embedded Systems Date – Thursday, December 12 at 1pm ET Time - 12 at 1pm ET
Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication offers enormous potential to expand the capabilities of devices, including remote wireless management and updates. However, there are profound security implications as the software running therein must be completely fault-tolerant and hardened from attack. This webcast, delivered by three seasoned professionals in the application security and embedded space, will describe the inherent security challenges of embedded systems, and provide best practices for protecting sensitive data. Embedded software engineers and security specialists attending this webinar will learn about: Common Attacks, Threats and Security Considerations for embedded software Using static analysis to find and fix security vulnerabilities Application Whitelisting – preventing malware and unauthorized changes Employing threat modeling as a defensive measure against security threats About the PresentersEd Adams is a software executive with successful leadership experience in the IT security and quality assurance industries. As CEO, Mr. Adams applies his security and business skills, as well as his pervasive industry experience in the software quality space, to direct application security experts to help organizations identify and mitigate risks in their software applications.
