Each year, the global economy is expected to suffer as much as $ 500 billion in losses due to cybercrime, including direct economic losses, extortional ransom and the loss of the mess. Despite the benefits of a fully interconnected cyber world that is far more threatening, all technology companies Should be responsible for the trust and lay a good foundation for mutual trust, so that we can ensure the security of the digital world.In fact, all companies must sign a digital social contract, to assume the obligation to protect users.
Digital Social Contract
Compliance with social contracts requires companies to be safe as a prerequisite for all design decisions, not just to comply with legal terms and conditions, which also means that companies need to take full account of the ways in which people may use technology rather than the way companies want them to use it. The contract also requires the user to assume the obligation to protect the safety of their own equipment, do not violate the safety regulations, but the technical designer should always assume the primary responsibility, because we are professionals, we need to immediately change such a mentality that the enterprise only Need to set their product '12345' or 'PASSWORD' such a simple password can be shipped.
Security issues are the basis for the development of the Internet of Things last year, we and IBM commissioned the "Economist" common business applications of the Internet conducted a survey, the results show that the investment boom is still continuing, many industries have entered the early large-scale The development of the stage.Although the progress of gratifying, but the Internet of Things industry is still not mature enough, trust is still to be established.If our technology companies to design and build a world of all things, then we must assume the responsibility to establish trust. We must treat the Internet of Things as much as the central bank treats money - data, connectivity and control - the focus of the Internet of Things Declaration issued today at the Arm TechCon conference in Santa Clara.
We discussed how the technology industry should fulfill the obligations assigned to them by the social contract and provide lifelong protection for their products. The authors of the Internet of Things Declaration assess the growing threat and introduce some advanced security features as well as Arm and others Institutions to consider the direction of development.
New direction of technological development
We are thinking about the new chip architecture path, which is 'isolated' by the central brain CPU, so that the scope of the attack is difficult to spread.In addition, we also explore how the industry to use local equipment rather than the cloud of artificial intelligence to find abnormal situations, and through learning The unique use of the device user's style to enhance the ability to secure and authenticate.
Another interesting idea is based on human biology's coverage of the entire network of immune systems and medical services. This concept may take only 3-5 years, the core is the use of artificial intelligence to assess and lock the attack. Like the body's white blood cells, can automatically attack the virus and isolate the infected device to ensure that the rest of the network can continue to run.
In its preface to the Internet of Things Declaration, she wrote: 'Internet hackers are increasingly rampant, hackers in the global context for individuals and businesses to carry out complex attacks. The emergence of Internet of things increased the chance of being attacked. We need to pay more attention to consumers, while paying attention to the network of psychological aspects of technology security.We need to adopt a people - oriented approach, a real understanding of people using the Internet 'things' practical way.
I would like to invite you to download the "Internet of Things Safety Declaration", and actively think about how to comply with our digital social contract, as a digital society of enterprises and citizens, for our future escort.
