Building Virtualized Honeypots to Protect the Internet of Things

What is a Honeypot? Honeypots are software designed to detect novel and emerging attack patterns against a specific system. Hence, a vulnerable version of the protected system will be created, which typically represents the easiest way to attack a system. With special preparation, a honeypot serves as a trap that…

European IoT Certification Activities

Certification ensures that a process or product meets the requirements of a known standard or specification, often audited by an independent third party. Validation ensures that a product meets pre-determined requirement specifications and can be seen as “sub-process” of certification. In both cases, those standards or specifications are usually the…
