McAfee and Wind River Webinar Thursday: Embedded Security

Wednesday, November 9, 2011 at 9:20am by Brian Contos

The number of connected devices is increasing exponentially, and expected to grow to 50 billion by 2020, according to Ericsson CEO Hans Vestberg. This dramatic increase in device connectivity is creating a potential tsunami of security vulnerabilities with serious implications as hackers, organized crime, terrorist organizations and even nation states begin to focus their attacks on embedded devices, which are often a weak link in otherwise tightly secured corporate networks. Developers must respond to these evolving threats by taking a more holistic approach to device security – one that considers security at every layer of the stack, from silicon to virtualization to the application layer.

This Thursday, join Marc Brown from Wind River and me as we explore the current state of embedded security, examine the impact of global connectivity and significant growth of intelligent connected devices, and discuss the threat from well-funded organizations exploiting cyber-attacks and cyber-espionage on these systems. In addition, we will be giving practical steps for improving the security of your embedded devices – even in the face of increasing attacks.

What You’ll Learn:

Overall growth and evolving techniques for cyber-attacks and malware
How to resolve the embedded security paradox
A pragmatic approach for improving security, using the 5-step improvement framework
Joint Wind River-McAfee solutions for embedded security

Who Should Attend:

Software engineers, testers, security architects tasked with improving device security
Development and engineering managers overseeing embedded systems development
Vice presidents of development and engineering

I hope you’ll register and join us this Thursday, November 10^th at 11am PT to learn more about what you can do to protect these critical devices and keep people more safe and secure. To learn more about how McAfee and Wind River are working together to secure embedded devices, you can also view a demo of McAfee Embedded Control whitelisting technology from the 2011 Intel Developer Forum, or visit our McAfee Embedded Security Solutions page.
