While the majority of this book is devoted to IoT security, the aforementioned IoT use cases clearly emphasize the increasing world demand for cross-disciplined security engineers. We struggle to find it covered in academic curricula outside of a few university computer science programs, network engineering, or dedicated security programs such as SANS. Most security practitioners have strong computer science and networking skills but are less versed in the physical and safety engineering disciplines covered by core engineering curricula. So, the cyber-physical aspects of the IoT face a safety versus security clash of cultures and conundrums:
- Everyone is responsible for security
- The IoT and CPS ...
