I am involved in a few initiatives aimed at improving IoT security. My company wrote the original IoT security strategy for the GSMA and we have been involved ever since, culminating in the publication of a set of IoT Security Guidelines which can be used by device manufacturers through to solution providers and network operators. Here’s a short video featuring me and other industry security experts explaining what we’re doing.

There’s still a long way to go with IoT security and we’ve still got to change the “do nothing” or “it’s not our problem” mindset around big topics like safety when it comes to the cyber physical world. Each step we take along the road is one step closer to better security in IoT and these documents represent a huge leap forward.
