While the vast number of Internet of Things (IoT) applications promise
to impact almost every industry vertical, the growth of IoT is
strongly linked to properly addressing the issues of security and
privacy. Threats are not just breaches, embarrassing accidents, bad
data handling practices, but also the risk of resulting ill-advised
regulation. A larger issue is public confidence in the industry as a
whole, in a word ‘Trust’.
The Internet Society, founded in 1992 by the inventors of TCP/IP, has
made its mission the fostering of independent collaborative processes
to resolve the technical, social, and policy Internet development
issues via such multistakeholder fora as the Internet Engineering Task
Force (IETF). In 2017 it merged with the Online Trust Alliance (OTA)
to launch an initiative to enhance online trust, user empowerment, and
innovation. The OTA has a broad membership including leading
corporations, academic institutions, and other stakeholders. Together
they have developed a set of key resources for IoT developers,
including the IoT Trust Framework, an Enterprise IoT Security
checklist, a Smart Home Checklist, and more. At this workshop you
will have the opportunity to not only become familiar with these
resources, but also bring your own issues and expertise to the ongoing
process of improving them.
