As embedded devices become more prevalent in our daily lives, their security has become increasingly important. These devices are used in critical infrastructure, industrial control systems, medical devices, and consumer electronics, making them targets for cyberattacks.To ensure the security of these devices, security must be considered in the design phase.

This talk will explore the concept of security by design for embedded devices. It will discuss the unique security challenges faced by embedded devices, including resource constraints and the need for real-time performance. The session will also cover the best practices for implementing security by design, such as threat modeling, secure boot, secure communication protocols, and firmware updates.

Finally, case studies of real-world attacks on embedded devices will be reviewed, and how security by design could have prevented these attacks. By the end of this talk, attendees will have a better understanding of the importance of security by design for embedded devices and the practical steps they can take to implement it.
