Embedded Executive: Tom Ricoy, Cigent

Most security prevention methods aim at detecting when a hack is occurring. Hence, term detection-based security. By embedded your cyber-security inside your memory subsystem, you make it prevention-based, essentially stopping the attack before it occurs. To be honest, I did not understand what that meant, so I spoke to Tom Ricoy, an officer at Cigent, to explain how it works on this week’s Embedded Executives podcast.
