The Hacker's Perspective: Zephyr OS and On-Device Runtime Protection

Explore the world of IoT security from a hacker's perspective in this 37-minute conference talk by Natali Tshuva from Sternum IoT. Gain insights into the limitations of traditional security measures for Zephyr OS-based devices and learn why relying solely on security patching and device hardening is insufficient. Discover how attackers view and exploit vulnerabilities in physical devices, and understand the challenges of identifying and mitigating all potential threats. Examine the shortcomings of current IoT security practices, including continuous patching, static analysis, encryption, and risk controls. Delve into advanced techniques for achieving embedded, on-device runtime exploits protection, and explore methods to immunize Zephyr-based devices against underlying vulnerabilities and zero-day attacks.
