But seriously… What is the IoT?
-‐ At least two Things with at least one Unique ID each (Iden/ty?) -‐ A Network connec0on (probably Wireless) and something to connect to (probably Cloud) -‐ Some Sensors to collect Data and some Storage (Biggish Data?) -‐ Data Access which means at least one API with possibly a Human Iden/ty and some sort of Device (probably Mobile)
-‐ Monitoring & Aler/ng and some Analy/cs for Value -‐ If you are up for it… Remote Control (which may or may not be ini0ated by a human) -‐ And of course you must have some Security

Threat Model – know your Risk!!! (systems vs. components)
SDLC & Basic Hygiene – secure by design
Define your boundary (logical / physical)
Design for Untrusted (very hard to fix this later)
Where trusted, always verify
Plan for and know how to react to failures
