Episode 118: Mobile and Embedded Device Security

Mobile and embedded devices require a tailored approach to security, and this episode explains how to apply protections without compromising usability. We begin with passcodes, biometrics, and auto-lock timers as primary defenses. Next, we explore mobile device management (MDM), including how organizations use it to enforce encryption, remotely wipe lost devices, and manage application permissions.We also touch on embedded systems—devices like smart thermostats, printers, and routers—and the unique security challenges they pose, such as hard-coded credentials and limited firmware update support. These topics often appear in exam questions that ask you to choose appropriate security measures based on device type. Brought to you by BareMetalCyber.com.
