This is the second event of a CSIS initiative to explore the opportunities and challenges that accompany the growth of the Internet of Things (IoT). The project aims to foster dialogue and debate around the benefits and policy challenges created by the growth of embedded and interconnected computing devices that deliver critical services, mediate our reality, and change the way we live. Additionally, it will investigate implications for privacy and identity, security challenges, and avenues for public policy response.
This event is sponsored by Symantec Corporation.
