Open Resources for Teaching IoT Physical Security

Zoom (Link to be posted 4/3/2023)

The Internet of Things (IoT) and physical devices are around us all the time. From a simple watch that measures your heartbeat to an advanced voice assistant that turns on your light, IoT devices are everywhere. Teaching security in this type of physical device is a new topic, and finding good quality resources for teaching is also a complicated task. In this project, the instructor took the best online open-source materials and created 15 modules with hands-on activities that teach students about the interaction with IoT devices and their security. The materials include labs with emulators of physical devices like Raspberry Pi and voice assistants. Students do not need to have the actual device to interact with them. The IT department in the College of Computing and Software Engineering at KSU has successfully implemented this course and its open materials since Spring 2022.
