Speaker Bio: Derek Fisher has more than 20 years of technical experience in both hardware and software engineering working in various companies and industries. He has spent the last six years in security as a developer, architect and leader where he and his teams have provided security services to development organizations. These services include vulnerability management, assistance with secure analysis tools, threat modeling, and risk assessments. Derek has devoted most of my time driving security in the software development life cycle in Agile and DevOps environments through requirements, standards and training. Throughout his time in security, he has been an evangelist for security practices in order to raise awareness among builders and users of software.
Topic Abstract: Exploring the various businesses and technology that are internet enabled allows one to understand the ubiquity of IoT. Productivity climbs when there is more real time information and a larger aggregate of data that can be used to find inefficient processes. But we have learned, as security practitioners, that the internet is generally an insecure landscape. With breaches reported daily and a constant stream of attackers, these internet connected devices produce a target rich environment. Focusing on what has worked with more secure suppliers of internet connected devices and general security practices will help us develop a more secure connected world.
