On this weekâs show weâre chatting with Fitbit security director Sasha Biskup and his colleague Marc Bown about how to build secure embedded devices from insecure components. During the development phase of some Fitbit products, the Fitbit security team has discovered some hideous vulnerabilities that could have compromised security downstream. Theyâve been able to mitigate these issues, but they worry other embedded device manufacturers arenât even looking at the security implications of their suppliersâ mistakes.
This weekâs show is brought to you by CyberArk! CyberArkâs Jeffrey Kok is this weekâs sponsor guest. He joins the show to talk about what CyberArk knows best â privileged account management. Itâs such a basic thing, but itâs hard to do right.
