Locknote: Conclusions and Key Takeaways
summary
Conference wrap lists concrete findings not platitudes: firmware analysis finds 12 Netgear routers sharing the same command‑injection bug; cars ship with 40 computers in the car and vendors prioritize features over security; Android malware exploits stable APIs rather than low‑level memory bugs; detection averages 200 days so emphasis shifts to rapid revert (immutable images, cloud snapshots) plus CI-driven fuzzing, bug bounties, unit tests, least‑privilege and two‑factor as the pragmatic controls.
