Chapter 3. Security Engineering for IoT Development
Security engineering is a complex subject deserving of multiple volumes. "Security engineering is a specialized field of engineering that focuses on the security aspects in the design of systems that need to be able to deal robustly with possible sources of disruption, ranging from natural disasters to malicious acts" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Security_engineering).
In today's fast-paced tech industry, security engineering often takes a back seat to the rush to develop competitive market-driven features. That is frequently a costly sacrifice as it provides malicious hackers an opportunity-rich sandbox in which to develop exploits. In an ideal world and project, a methodical approach includes identification and evolution of a series of functional business requirements. These requirements are prototyped, tested, refined, and finalized into an architecture before being developed, tested and deployed. This is how...
