Chapter 10: Security Mechanisms: Encryption, Digital Certificates, Secure Boot Processes, and Intrusion Detection Systems
Abstract: Some security measures that can be taken for the Internet of Things (IoT) are: Network segmentation: Isolate IoT devices from other systems and data by connecting them to a separate network. This prevents malware from spreading and limits the access of attackers. Strong authentication: Use strong passwords, two-factor authentication, or biometric verification to protect access to IoT devices. Regular updates: Install security patches and updates to fix vulnerabilities and improve security. Strong encryption: Use strong encryption methods to protect data transmission and storage. Network monitoring: Monitor network traffic and device behavior for any unusual activity or security breaches. Security audits: Perform regular security audits to identify potential vulnerabilities. Zero-trust network access: Apply a zero-trust policy to only allow normal operational access to IoT devices. Credential security: Avoid reusing cr...
