8:50am - Stacey Higginbotham of Stacey on IoT: Mission Impossible

The IoT of today is far more secure than the IoT of six years ago when the Mirai botnet awakened everyone to the problem. But a multitude of factors mean that our networks are full of vulnerabilities ready to exploit. Government regulations and attention to security will help, but the problem isn't one we can solve. It's simply something we must adapt to. We'll talk about the current rules of the road, and best practices that line up with where regulations are heading. 

9:50am - Katerina Megas, NIST IoT Cybersecurity Program Manager 

Will provide an overview of the NIST IoT cybersecurity program principles, some of the key policy drivers for the NIST work, and highlight some of the core NIST guidance that can inform manufacturers of IoT products as they consider cybersecurity features and activities during their product development.

Leading the Wisconsin

Connectivity Initiatives 

What We Believe

To inspire Wisconsin and the Midwest to lead the evolution of the Internet of Things. We believe that our rich history of supporting industries such as manufacturing, software, retail, and healthcare gives the region the experience and knowledge needed to foster the Internet of Things. 

We also believe if our companies and their employees are to continue to stay and grow here, and if new companies are going to be built here, we need to promote Wisconsin and the Midwest as the epicenter for IoT. We drive technological advancement in the region, so the world knows that you build it in the Midwest if you want to succeed in the Internet of Things evolution.

What We Do

WIoT is a professional membership driven organization that advocates for Wisconsin and the Midwest as the epicenter for IoT by providing the WIoT and its members with a forum and environment conducive for purposeful networking, relationship building, talent attraction and development and mutual exchange of information relative to the Internet of Things.

How We Do It

We provide statewide programming for our WIoT membership in the form of a regular event series focused on Education, Capital, Talent and Policy as it pertains to the Internet of Things.  Additionally, we provide an IoT Inventory of regional companies focused on IoT and source and publish case studies of IoT products and implementations that have taken place in Wisconsin.
