*The Thermostat, The Hacker, and The Malware*
Following the PoC of thermostat ransomware Ken Munro and Andrew Tierney performed at DefCon 24, this presentation digs even deeper into IoT devices and their apps. Staying with the thermostat Ken and Andrew will walk through the ransomware attack and then move onto general malware – which has no easy method for detection. Even when firewalled these devices are still vulnerable to local attacks so we’ll show you how you can achieve a compromise. We’ll also take a look at CSRF spraying, IoT gear in public areas, supply chain tampering, and malicious firmware updates.
