are you safe in iot? - know about different types of threats
TRANSCRIPT
2015 faces a big question when we talk about IoT flourishing….
that is…...
How much vulnerable are you with IoT ?
IoT is a multi trillion dollar business
But….
A bitter truth
IoT at the same time is a potential disaster for privacy and security.
Data has immense value !!
Some Facts
… so imagination of a world where all data can flow seamlessly introduced IoT
IoT… it will touch the mark of 50 billion connected devices by the year 2020.
IoT has changed the information landscape which has opened up a whole new scope of cyber attacks !!
IoT has IP-connected everything, so the question is how to lock down the security when everything is IP-connected !?
A brain whacking question?
Hence it leads to …
Capture …
Disrupt …
Manipulate …
Capture Attack.
Internet of Things are very much susceptible to the various capture attacks which are done either to capture data or gain access to the devices.
Heterogeneity of devices is yet another reason to enhance the capture attack.
Successful capture of any system leads to subsequent capture of a number of related systems.
… chain of system data being exposed thereby disrupting the security of the entire environment.
It leads to …..
Disrupt and Destroy Attack.
Capture Attack
Destroy & Disrupt Attack
leads to
It captures important data and tampers them accordingly and redirects the manipulated data.
Tampering of data is only feasible if the attacker has caught hold of a single loophole in that environment.
Manipulate Attack.
Attacker intervenes with the decision cycle of the opponent.
They manipulate the sensors used for gathering the information.
They capture and manipulate the embedded data in the systems.
OR
Attacker intervenes with the communication channel transferring the data and exerting control over transmission.
Privacy Issues.
The connected objects populating the IoT are capable enough to transmit information about individuals i.e. about their state,
location and can be used by the attacker to track you.
Change is inevitable and so are the security concerns. And security issues have been daunting us with every change in era but no matter what it has never been able to stop our technological revolutions. So are you safe in IoT?
The wheels of development never stopped to roll due to such concerns instead the gravel laid roads were smoothened. So yes IoT
is coming, brace yourselves.
