IoT Evolution Expo 2020 is coming up fast, and we interviewed several of our speakers to get a bit of a preview of what to expect from their sessions.

Here, we interviewed speaker Larry Karisny, who will be in our Best Practices Theatre on Thursday afternoon, to dig deep into the Advantages of Securing the Intelligent Edge, at IoT Evolution Expo 2020, which is taking place February 11 to 14 in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida.

Here is a little preview of his thoughts:

IoT Evolution: What are some key ideas you plan to cover in your session?

Larry Karisny: IoT by design is in the security business. IoT security now has laws, mandates, standards, human and machine vulnerability and demanded requirements by IoT users prior to purchase. IoT has forced the entire Cyber Defense industry to offer deeper, faster and stronger security in a trustless model. IoT uses components of the most advanced Cyber Defense technologies (True Random Entropy, Micro-segmentation, Visualization and AI) in its product design. Leveraging the IoT security platform can attract new, additional and recurring customers to the IoT provider. Advanced IoT technologies will define the Cyber Defense industry from now to the Quantum Computer.

IoTE: What insights do you hope attendees will take home?

LK: IoT is the leader in cyber defense not the follower. The technical architecture of IoT forced the entire Cyber Defense industry to offer more advanced security. By design IoT is micro-segmented. This offers the capability of using advanced cyber defense technologies uniquely for the IoT application. Once demonstrated, the same advanced cyber defense technology can be added to the more complex system architectures. IoT security is a benefit that attracts new, additional and recurring IoT users to the IoT application.

IoTE: Can you identify a few important trends influencing your sector of the IoT which will shape the path of the industry? Why these?

LK: By law, mandate, standard and customer demand IoT must be secured. True Random Entropy, Micro-segmentation, Visualization and AI are used in the most advanced trends in Cyber Defense technologies. IoT uses components of these technologies that can be used in developing advanced IoT cyber defense. The deployment of advanced IoT Cyber Defense technologies will lead the Cyber Defense industry in superior security solutions. IoT and IoT security is the bridge to Quantum Computing.


IoTE: What are the biggest challenges facing the IoT right now?

LK: Deploying solid Cyber Defense technologies today for IoT.

IoTE: What are some strategies you recommend to overcome those challenges?

LK:

  • Partner with companies already offering advanced Cyber Defense security solutions for IoT.
  • Deploy Advanced Cyber Defense technologies in the Micro-segmented IoT application.
  • Follow industry standards offering migration paths to future IoT advanced security solutions.     

IoTE: Which vertical markets have the most to gain from IoT implementation? Which are leading and which are still behind the adoption curve?

LK: If a solid security platform is demonstrated, IIoT and Smart City Critical Infrastructure applications can most benefit from IoT applications. If not demonstrated some of these IoT applications by mandate cannot use IoT.   

IoTE: What sessions are you most looking forward to attending at the Expo? Why?

Intelligent Edge of Smart City

Understand applications and how to secure As a Service Smart City applications

Discuss: How Smart is the Edge

Security is in the IoT processor. This discussion will show the true edge.
