IoT Lockdown - Battling Bot Net Builders

slides:none on file

Describes the Mirai-class DDoS that peaks at 1.2 Tbps using about 380,000 devices and lists concrete defenses: eliminate default credentials by per-device randomized passwords, remove unused services (no local SMTP/FTP/SSH), use minimal Linux images or Yocto builds, enforce strong password hashing (PBKDF2/bcrypt/argon2), require signed firmware updates and certificate pinning for TLS, encrypt stored and transit data, add rate limiting/honeypots to detect scanners, and plan an authenticated, secure patch/rollback mechanism.
