some thoughts on security and robots
DESCRIPTION
presented during the RSA Conference 14 in San Francisco. The main idea was to highlight how devices like robots raise new questions about physical security (for hardware and people) and about privacy.TRANSCRIPT

Why humanoid robots?
• Natural Interactions• Smart devices• Grab and use real world objects
#RSAC#RSAC
humanoid robot:
contextual definition
human-shaped connected & autonomous device that can have direct physical interactions with beings and objects
#RSAC
What about security?
3 laws of robotics (Asimov, 1942)
#1 a robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm
#2 a robot must obey the orders given to it by human beings, except when such orders would conflict with #1
#3 a robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with #1 and #2
#RSAC
Physical security
• Physical security of robots– Hardware– Software
• Physical security of people using robots
• Enhancing people’s physical security with robots
#RSAC
Privacy
• Exponential growth of data with robots:– Autonomous navigation– Face recognition– Open conversation
• Use value > Privacy
#RSAC
Privacy
• Users can’t have full control on data• Data vs Personal Data• Big Data vs Privacy
#RSAC
Privacy
• Trust the product• Trust the company• Understand data collection
#RSAC
Robotics challenges with security
• Hardware challenge• Social-acceptance challenge
