ISSA-LA InfoSec Summit XI

While the industry is focused almost entirely on software protection against cyber-attacks, one of the greatest threats resides in rogue or corrupt hardware devices that are present in almost every computing network and infrastructure. From the doctored motherboard chips on our servers that have been corrupted along the supply chain to compromised peripheral devices, mobile phones and USB drops, hardware vulnerabilities represent a target rich environment for cyber criminals leveraging a variety of threat exploits. Citing examples occurring recently in the International server manufacturing supply chain, IP theft by disgruntled employees, and data leaks at a Fortune 20 bank, the founder and CEO of Sepio will explain how to detect, prevent, and protect information systems from hardware-based attacks.
