As reported by Peter Clarke in EETimes, The Internet of Things Security Foundation has just been created. It is a UK-based organization with the backing of over 30 organisations including: Broadcom, Freescale, Imagination Technologies, Inside Secure, Tokyo Electron, Vodafone, uBlox and many other companies and academic institutions. The IoTSF launch formally at an event in London on Sept. 23. Their initial statement:
The economic impact of the Internet of Things will be measured in $trillions.
The number of connected devices will be measured in billions.
The resultant benefits of a connected society are significant, disruptive and transformational.
Yet, along with the opportunity, there are fears and concerns about the security of IoT systems.
The international IoT Security Foundation (IoTSF) has been established as a response to those concerns.
