CIS 720 seminar by Dr. Depeng Li, Internet of Things

Please join us for another CIS PhD seminar, with title: “Security for Internet of Things and Case Studies

Where: Hamilton LIbrary 3K
When: 4:30 – 5:30, Monday Feb 5

The Internet of Things (IoT) is becoming an emerging trend and a growing reality in our age. In IoT, a variety of smart objects (things) interacts and communicates with the environment by exchanging the information. Its pervasive presence offers the ability to measure the contextual indicators and to facilitate information sharing by enabling network connections among physical objects. However, the growing importance of Internet of Things (IoT) and its use to support critical applications have made security and privacy a central issue today. It becomes evident that weaknesses of IoT could open a door for adversaries and some vulnerability, inherent in IoT, could be targeted by the malicious users. The potential vulnerability of IoTmay lead to a compromised system if there is no deployment of appropriate, well-designed counteractions. This talk will will introduce some interesting case studies such as air traffic management (ongoing) and e-Health (future work).
