Show Notes

In our "always-on" society, it's important that our conversation on IoT security continues with the question of data ownership.

It's making its way back into the limelight when Amazon, with the defendant’s permission, handed over user data in a trial.

Or what about a new software that captures all the angles from your face to build your security profile? Your face is such an intimate aspect to who you are, should we reduce that intimacy down to a data point?

I discussed these questions with this week’s Inside Out Security Show panel – Cindy Ng, Forrest Temple, Kilian Englert and Mike Buckbee.

Additional articles we discussed:
