John Stewart, Vice President and Chief Security Officer of Cisco reported in 2010 that by the end of the year each of us would have on average 5 ip connected devices. He further predicted that by the end of 2013 we would each have 140 devices (a world population in excess of 1 Trillion devices). One catalyst for this change is the exponential growth of ip based appliances such as IPTV, Blu Ray and even refrigerators. Combine this with smartphones and wifi enabled players and we realise that the very shape of our personal networks is changing. Did we reach Stewart’s predictions by the end of 2013?
In this talk we shall discuss a range of implications of this growth including;
Firstly the suggestion that this richness of potential forensic data should be an investigator’s dream – more data equals more information equals more chance of evidential corroboration, but with this explosion comes increased time to investigate and increased complexity of investigation.
Secondly that for many years we have relied on a protective security model where the end point devices can exert some measure of control (anti virus, anti malware etc) but these new appliances will not have the capability to undertake the same level of protection. If these appliances are insecure, what is the likelihood that they can be compromised for malicious use? Is there a risk that their owners may be accused of crimes that they did not commit? Is this the new “Trojan defence” vector?
