Although it has been with us in some form and under different names for many years, the Internet of Things (IoT) is suddenly the thing. The ability to connect, communicate with, and remotely manage an incalculable number of networked, automated devices via the Internet is becoming pervasive, from the factory oor to the hospital operating room to the residential basement.
The transition from closed networks to enterprise IT networks to the public Internet is accelerating at an alarming pace—and justly raising alarms about security. As we become increasingly reliant on intelligent, interconnected devices in every aspect of our lives, how do we protect potentially billions of them from intrusions and interference that could compromise personal privacy or threaten public safety?
As a global leader in embedded technology solutions, Wind River® has been deeply involved since its inception in securing devices that perform life-critical functions and comply with stringent regulatory requirements. This paper examines the constraints and security challenges posed by IoT connected devices, and the Wind River approach to addressing them.
