Serial No. 115-40: Cybersecurity of the Internet of Things, Hearing Before the Subcommittee on Information Technology of the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, House of Representatives, One Hundred Fifteenth Congress, First Session, October 3, 2017
This is the October 3, 2017 hearing on Cybersecurity of the Internet of Things, held before the Subcommittee on Information Technology of the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. From the opening statement of Will Hurd: The Internet of Things presents an opportunity to improve and enhance nearly every aspect of our society, economy, and day-to- day lives. But in order for us to be able to fully harness this technology, the Internet of Things needs to be built with security in mind and not as an afterthought. When integrating these devices into our lives, people need to know that they are secure. Unfortunately, we are far from this ideal state because many IoT [Internet of Things] devices violate basic cybersecurity practices. Some IoT devices lack the ability to be patched or include hard-coded passwords that cannot be changed by the user. This lateral vulnerability was explored in the recent attack on Dyn, which took down Netflix, Spotify, Twitter, and a number of other websites for hours. Senators Mark Warner and Cory Gardner have recently proposed one way of potentially increasing the cybersecurity of these devices by introducing a bill that would set minimum security requirements for devices purchased by the Federal Government. Statements, letters, and materials submitted for the record include those of the following: Matthew J. Eggers, Tommy Ross, Josh Corman, and Ray O'Farrell.
