ATLANTA, Oct. 19, 2021 /PRNewswire/
-- KORE (NYSE: KORE), a global leader in Internet of
Things (IoT) solutions and worldwide IoT Connectivity-as-a-Service
(CaaS), announced today that its President and CEO
Romil Bahl will address the
issue of IoT security at Mobile World Congress, which takes place
at the Los Angeles Convention
Center in Los Angeles, California
and starts Tuesday, Oct. 26,
2021.
"CISOs are eager to shore up sensors, routers, and other IoT
devices that are connected to their networks."
Bahl refers to 2021-2030 as "the decade of IoT" and expects a
tidal wave of IoT devices being deployed, growing from
approximately 12 billion IoT devices in 2020 to around 75 billion
by 2030. Analyst research shows that today, there are already 69
percent of enterprises with more devices connected to their
networks than computers, resulting in a broad attack surface that
is ripe for bad actors and is difficult for security leaders to
protect.
In his presentation, Bahl will dive into the need for a
multi-dimensional approach to IoT security, including prevention,
detection, and management of IoT security across devices, networks,
and applications. Bahl said, "The typical enterprise has tens of
thousands of devices hanging off its distributed networks. And that
means scammers and hackers have tens of thousands of entry points
into a company's systems. In our conversations with the CISO
offices of our customers, we are hearing that IoT security is the
issue keeping them up at night. They are eager to shore up sensors,
routers, and other IoT devices that are connected to their
networks."
Immediately following the keynote presentation, Bahl will
participate on a panel with experts from McKinsey & Company,
Huawei, F-Secure, and CUJO AI to discuss IoT security issues and
mitigation strategies being adopted by organizations.
Join him on Wednesday, Oct. 27 at
3 p.m./Pacific Time in the 408A,
Concourse Meeting Room to learn how to tackle one of the most
vulnerable areas of your business.
