Securing Robots at Scale

Explore the critical aspects of securing robots at scale in this 52-minute conference talk from BSidesLV 2018. Delve into various robot types, their ubiquitous presence, and the Anki Robotics Platform. Examine robot hardware architecture and potential vulnerabilities. Analyze past security breaches and understand attack surfaces through hardware threat modeling. Investigate attacks on voice interfaces, AI, vision, SLAM, and manufacturing supply chains. Learn about trust model considerations and high-level security goals. Discover the importance of privacy indicators, code authorization, and hardware security. Address challenges in physical security, secure device pairing, OS/firmware security, and network/cloud security. Gain insights into protecting user privacy and tackling hard privacy issues in robotics.
