The last but certainly not least theme of Security Awareness Month is the Internet of Things. IoT is growing at a dangerously fast pace, and researchers estimate that by 2020, the number of active wireless connected devices will exceed 40 billion.
The upside is that the technology allows us to do things we never before imagined.
But there is a downside to IoT: it is becoming an increasingly attractive target for cyber criminals.
More inter-connected devices means more attack vectors and more possibilities for hackers to target us.
Join us for a presentation that covers what IoT is and the potential it holds, as well as a thrilling demo with a live example of a potential IoT hack.
