00:00.000 --> 00:10.560
Hi everyone, and welcome to How Do We Uniform November Foxtrot Uniform Charlie Kilo Unfuck Things.

00:11.880 --> 00:16.360
Can we really unfuck these things, or is it GARFU?

00:16.800 --> 00:24.120
And for those that don't know the military slang, this is... well, go Google it.

00:24.120 --> 00:26.020
It's more fun, right?

00:26.020 --> 00:28.060
I don't want to tell it all to you guys.

00:28.460 --> 00:30.020
Just go Google that.

00:31.100 --> 00:34.520
This talk is not your normal talk, right?

00:34.520 --> 00:36.280
This is an interpretive dance.

00:36.280 --> 00:42.440
This is me getting on my soapbox because I'm five foot nothing and tell you all the things that needs to be unfucked.

00:42.680 --> 00:44.560
This is my own opinion.

00:44.560 --> 00:46.020
This is no one else's opinion.

00:46.020 --> 00:47.700
This is conversations that have been had.

00:47.700 --> 00:49.360
This is observations that have been made.

00:49.360 --> 00:53.760
So if you're easily offended, this is not the talk for you.

00:53.760 --> 00:57.020
Scroll past, go do some other fluffy stuff.

00:57.520 --> 00:59.540
So who am I?

00:59.600 --> 01:02.100
I am a DEFCON goon.

01:02.100 --> 01:05.520
I'm the founder of DEC2751.

01:05.620 --> 01:11.880
We solely focus on reverse engineering medical devices and making things better.

01:12.040 --> 01:15.940
I'm also an avid biohacker village supporter.

01:15.940 --> 01:19.020
I think this is the best village at DEFCON.

01:19.020 --> 01:21.880
It's the one I certainly most enjoy.

01:22.000 --> 01:25.860
I'm also a current and independent researcher for Medtronic.

01:25.860 --> 01:32.060
And as you can see in the beautiful picture on the right, that is my Medtronic ICDR.

01:32.660 --> 01:37.620
It's what keeps me breathing and kicking and doing all the things.

01:37.820 --> 01:40.760
I'm also a DFIR lethal forensicator.

01:40.760 --> 01:43.940
I've been doing forensics and incident response for many, many years.

01:43.940 --> 01:48.200
Yes, I look very young, but I'm much older than I look.

01:48.440 --> 01:50.460
I'm a member of I Am The Calvary.

01:50.460 --> 01:54.320
I'm a patient and I proudly refer to myself as a cyborg.

01:55.920 --> 02:05.640
Now, I wanted to do a different talk this year because I believe that if we know what is wrong, we can find ways to fix them.

02:05.780 --> 02:09.540
So this is the talk for all medical device enthusiasts.

02:09.540 --> 02:14.550
Those that want to unfuck the things, those that want to fix it and make it better.

02:16.080 --> 02:20.360
So let's talk about the legacy of all problems, right?

02:20.360 --> 02:22.600
I sat down the day and I did the maths.

02:22.600 --> 02:29.140
In the US alone, there are 600,000 new implantable devices every year.

02:29.340 --> 02:34.300
These devices last for approximately a decade.

02:34.300 --> 02:44.420
So you start adding these up, we have a whole sea of devices that sooner or later will add to our technical debt.

02:45.220 --> 02:56.540
In a single hospital, if you put all the devices together within a hospital in the US, we'll have 10 to 15 million connected medical devices.

02:56.540 --> 03:00.880
That's about 10 to 15 connected devices per patient bed.

03:00.880 --> 03:06.340
To give you an example, I was in ICU because often than not, my heart's an asshole.

03:07.010 --> 03:11.000
And it lands me into ICU for some TLC, right?

03:11.000 --> 03:12.760
So I go have my holidays.

03:12.760 --> 03:23.060
If you look around, you have infusion pumps, you have monitors, you have external monitors monitoring your pacemaker or your ICD.

03:23.440 --> 03:25.900
And you have central stations.

03:25.960 --> 03:30.760
It is this big ocean of leaping lights.

03:30.840 --> 03:35.640
I know Jason Street always refers to it as a box with lengthy lights.

03:35.640 --> 03:39.060
Well, go be in an ICU bed, you'll see lots of those.

03:39.500 --> 03:49.060
So when we start realizing how many hospital beds there are, how many devices are attached to those beds, we start seeing the magnitude of the legacy.

03:49.300 --> 03:54.200
We see the ocean of devices we are faced to protect or to fix.

03:54.740 --> 04:00.720
Now, this is what led me down this path, is that I think we should start fixing the ship now.

04:00.720 --> 04:05.840
We can't wait for another year, can't wait for two, because we're adding to our problem.

04:07.380 --> 04:11.460
And now as we've seen COVID, healthcare has changed forever.

04:11.820 --> 04:15.720
The boundaries have been broken, the perimeters no longer exist.

04:17.900 --> 04:20.540
So you wonder why I say the legacy.

04:20.540 --> 04:24.640
Well, in case you did not know, most medical devices are coded in C.

04:25.180 --> 04:28.000
So I decided to do a dad joke.

04:30.490 --> 04:34.830
The question is, how are we getting it so wrong?

04:34.870 --> 04:38.330
And yeah, this someone said that someone was me.

04:39.050 --> 04:46.190
I want to know why in three years we've made no strides or why in three years we're doing the same things over and over.

04:47.230 --> 04:49.350
Well, let's start at the beginning.

04:49.490 --> 04:51.450
Lack of clear definitions.

04:51.710 --> 04:55.050
There's no consistencies in the terms that we use.

04:55.650 --> 05:10.690
I often go to talks and I realize, well, we're talking about medical device security, but the more that we are listening, I realize it is a Windows 10 endpoint within a healthcare establishment that we're talking about.

05:11.050 --> 05:16.930
Surely that's not the same as an insulin pump, an infusion pump, or even a pacemaker.

05:17.190 --> 05:19.770
Those things don't even look or act the same.

05:20.030 --> 05:24.590
So I decided to do what any good researcher does and I went to the dictionary.

05:24.590 --> 05:26.310
I looked up the terms.

05:26.870 --> 05:28.630
So let's explore healthcare.

05:29.430 --> 05:35.250
The field concerned with the maintenance and restoration of the health of the body and mind.

05:37.330 --> 05:41.530
It's hard, but this is what healthcare does.

05:41.530 --> 05:43.490
This is what hospitals do.

05:44.010 --> 05:51.510
So surely any device that they put there to help facilitate this should be called a healthcare device.

05:52.570 --> 06:00.710
So let's explore what is the meaning of medical relating to medicine or the practice of medicine.

06:01.130 --> 06:04.990
So it is something that allows us to practice medicine.

06:04.990 --> 06:08.090
Healthcare is something that we give to our patients.

06:08.830 --> 06:14.330
For me, I started to see the clear separation between the two.

06:14.530 --> 06:16.850
Each one has different responsibilities.

06:16.850 --> 06:18.770
Each one has a different function.

06:18.770 --> 06:23.090
It is very important that we start differentiating from the two.

06:23.750 --> 06:25.730
An interesting useless fact.

06:25.730 --> 06:29.210
Did you know that a cotton swab is seen as a medical device?

06:30.250 --> 06:33.490
Yes, that is for ICD-10 and billing purposes.

06:34.310 --> 06:36.350
I sure as hell don't think it's a device.

06:36.350 --> 06:37.970
I think it's a disposable.

06:38.010 --> 06:40.050
It's something we only use once.

06:40.730 --> 06:42.270
So let's see.

06:42.270 --> 06:43.970
What is a device?

06:43.990 --> 06:49.430
Something contrived for a specific purpose, usually a simple mechanical apparatus.

06:49.970 --> 06:57.250
Okay, so your insulin pump, your pacemaker, those are all a device, right?

06:57.790 --> 07:00.990
Well, now the question is, is it medical or is it healthcare?

07:01.030 --> 07:11.130
We need to start differentiating because each one of the two have different controls, different threats, different weaknesses and vulnerabilities.

07:11.390 --> 07:14.450
In fact, they have different operating systems.

07:14.450 --> 07:19.110
We need to clearly understand what we are dealing with.

07:19.950 --> 07:23.850
Now the question is, is it a healthcare or a medical device?

07:23.850 --> 07:25.970
Which button will you choose?

07:26.070 --> 07:28.010
Which one will you use?

07:28.430 --> 07:39.370
I get very confused because we're using the same terminology for everything because medical device sounds much more sexier than a healthcare endpoint or a healthcare device.

07:40.010 --> 07:52.690
But that leads me to the point that if we don't start defining these things out and understanding the ecosystem we are set to protect, we are setting ourselves up for a hiding.

07:52.810 --> 07:56.350
We are literally looking to be spanked.

07:59.450 --> 08:01.890
This is something that I'm living my life towards.

08:01.890 --> 08:07.670
When you talk, you are only repeating what you know, but when you listen, you learn something new.

08:07.890 --> 08:13.230
So I went on a year-long journey to understand what devices are telling me.

08:13.230 --> 08:17.370
I wanted to know what secrets they hold.

08:20.220 --> 08:26.300
Why things are so wrong is that we're not assigning responsibility accurately.

08:26.500 --> 08:34.840
I know it's a word that everyone fears because no one wants to be accountable or responsible for decisions or things they fault.

08:35.460 --> 08:41.100
So let's explore the MDM or the medical device manufacturer's responsibility.

08:41.300 --> 08:50.380
They have a responsibility to create devices that aren't unhackable because let's face it, nothing's unhackable.

08:50.380 --> 08:54.200
Everyone gets bored and someone figures out how to hack a device.

08:54.280 --> 09:02.320
But they need to have a device that is secure or as secure and safe as you can have it.

09:02.320 --> 09:08.460
But their responsibility is to deal with the devices both pre-market and post-market.

09:08.680 --> 09:15.900
Meaning that if a vulnerability is found pre-market, they need to fix it before going to market with the device.

09:15.900 --> 09:28.540
They need to do everything in their power to make sure what they are building, both on a firmware and a hardware level, takes into consideration the security challenges as well as the clinical features.

09:28.640 --> 09:34.120
Because let's face it, security is not a functional requirement for medical devices.

09:34.120 --> 09:37.080
They are there to offer medical care to patients.

09:38.000 --> 09:48.500
Often we see that security is slapped on after the fact, where it should be coming from design throughout manufacturing to when it goes to market.

09:49.180 --> 09:52.860
Now we have a fairly secure device that's gone to market.

09:52.960 --> 09:56.860
For example, an ICD lasts for 10 to 15 years.

09:56.860 --> 10:01.300
I can almost guarantee you that in that time, someone will find a vulnerability.

10:01.940 --> 10:04.500
Now we need to fix that vulnerability.

10:05.200 --> 10:14.760
The hospital or healthcare establishment has no power to fix the firmware or even fix the physical device if there's a vulnerability found.

10:14.800 --> 10:17.690
This remains the MDM's responsibility.

10:18.420 --> 10:25.660
Part of their responsibility is having a catalog or register of the information on everything that goes into their products.

10:25.760 --> 10:32.560
For every product they put on market, they have responsibility towards the end of the lifetime of that device.

10:33.380 --> 10:38.040
If it breaks, they are the only ones that have the power to fix it.

10:38.040 --> 10:39.280
No one else.

10:41.200 --> 10:44.780
Now we get to what is the FDA's responsibility?

10:45.560 --> 10:53.740
Well, I say the FDA because it's a US conference, but everyone follows suit of the FDA.

10:53.740 --> 11:04.820
If you start researching medical legislation around the world, you will see the terminology used by the FDA being rolled out in other countries, meaning they are the leader in this.

11:04.820 --> 11:07.220
They are the one that everyone looks up to.

11:07.720 --> 11:10.740
They need more legislative power.

11:10.740 --> 11:12.560
They need more teeth.

11:12.800 --> 11:18.280
They need to be an enforcer of what the standard is.

11:18.320 --> 11:22.300
They're the one that has to keep the MDM's on track.

11:22.420 --> 11:26.440
They are the ones that gatekeepers to the market for products.

11:26.440 --> 11:30.260
They are the ones that need to enforce the fixing of the problem.

11:31.220 --> 11:37.940
I know that they're currently working on new guidances, and I surely hope that it's got more teeth.

11:37.940 --> 11:44.960
An example of this is in the guidances currently at state, reasonable risk analysis needs to be done.

11:45.020 --> 11:52.580
However, the reasonable analysis that is required for it to meet the reasonable test is not specified.

11:53.400 --> 11:59.040
So again, we have guidances that don't have enough detail or standards out.

11:59.060 --> 12:11.640
I'm hoping that from a legislative point of view, we can actually start setting the tone of what is expected from a medical device, both on a clinical and both at a security level.

12:12.000 --> 12:14.440
And this is not just for implantables.

12:14.440 --> 12:22.480
I know it's a little bit harder when it's inside someone, but let's start categorizing it.

12:22.480 --> 12:27.080
Let's start standardizing the things and setting up the rules of engagement.

12:28.020 --> 12:30.300
What is expected of a device?

12:30.300 --> 12:34.360
How should it be used and how it should be updated?

12:34.520 --> 12:37.600
These are things that only can be done by the FDA.

12:38.020 --> 12:39.780
They are the rule setters.

12:39.780 --> 12:41.520
They are the rule enforcers.

12:41.520 --> 12:47.580
Let me look at what is the HDO's responsibility.

12:47.840 --> 12:51.880
Their responsibility is to keep their patients alive.

12:51.880 --> 13:14.240
Their responsibility is to have these diversities of devices on their networks, but they have to implement them in a safe way, taking into consideration the type of device it is, how it communicates, and how they are going to introduce it into their ecosystem.

13:14.600 --> 13:18.320
Those are the responsibilities of the HDO.

13:18.320 --> 13:27.040
They do not hold a responsibility for updating firmware or even vulnerability management of devices.

13:27.040 --> 13:30.200
That should be a manufacturing role.

13:30.720 --> 13:36.100
We've seen that during COVID-19, HDO's are crumbling globally.

13:36.100 --> 13:39.460
Healthcare is fracturing.

13:39.820 --> 13:45.980
And the fact is that they are designed, their purpose is to deal with pandemics and viruses.

13:46.240 --> 13:54.680
We are now expecting them to take on board cybersecurity and do the job of the manufacturer or do the job of the FDA.

13:55.280 --> 13:57.740
That is not what they're designed for.

13:57.800 --> 14:02.800
So how can we expect that they will not crumble and break even further?

14:02.820 --> 14:08.980
As a security researcher or a hacker, I don't want to be responsible for breaking healthcare more.

14:08.980 --> 14:11.620
I want to be responsible for making it better.

14:12.080 --> 14:19.080
So we should take into consideration that the decisions they make on a daily basis are life and death.

14:19.460 --> 14:22.040
They have patients connected to them.

14:22.040 --> 14:25.240
We shouldn't be making things harder for an HDO.

14:25.240 --> 14:30.020
We should be supporting them and making it safer for them to implement.

14:30.480 --> 14:36.500
The last thing I want is for someone to have a device breached and a patient to lose their life.

14:36.500 --> 14:39.760
It puts signs back tens of decades.

14:40.060 --> 14:44.700
And the fact of the matter is I would not be here without my device.

14:44.720 --> 14:47.020
I would be dead at the age of 19.

14:48.160 --> 14:52.740
It has extended my life and for that I'm grateful and thankful.

14:53.200 --> 15:00.500
So we cannot go forward and break things more until we have an understanding how we can build them up.

15:01.880 --> 15:15.700
Now the third problem is two worlds colliding, meaning we have this complex ecosystem that has different devices but we have one way of implementing them.

15:15.700 --> 15:24.900
We have a cookie cutter approach when it comes to infusing medical devices into a hospital because we don't define these out properly.

15:25.840 --> 15:31.260
Are we heading for a big bang or is it going to be a meeting of the minds?

15:32.260 --> 15:44.260
I think we are facing a situation where we're going to have a big bang because all we need to happen is for these controls to fail.

15:45.080 --> 15:57.600
And can you honestly tell me that you have the same controls for a Windows 10 machine versus a patient bedside monitor running something like BusyBox, VXWorks or proprietary software?

15:58.500 --> 16:00.240
Are these the same?

16:00.240 --> 16:01.520
Do they look the same?

16:01.520 --> 16:02.620
Do they sound the same?

16:02.620 --> 16:04.180
Do they crack the same?

16:04.180 --> 16:05.940
I don't think so.

16:05.940 --> 16:09.360
I think each one comes with different sets of challenges.

16:09.820 --> 16:19.360
I found that a hospital is the most complex sea of devices that I've ever seen and this is just me walking through a hospital.

16:19.480 --> 16:24.080
Have you ever noticed how many different manufacturers can be under one roof?

16:24.800 --> 16:30.400
Do you think that those devices are all made equally and the same?

16:30.400 --> 16:35.180
Do you think every manufacturer implies the same controls?

16:35.320 --> 16:37.740
Has the same way of thinking?

16:38.180 --> 16:42.540
No, everyone functions in a silo because there's no clear standard.

16:42.540 --> 16:50.580
The standards we are using are those for IoT devices or for regular computers or laptops or endpoints.

16:50.600 --> 16:55.820
There's no set of standards specifically catering to medical devices.

16:56.320 --> 17:02.280
And to be clear, when I say medical device, I mean that thing made by a manufacturer.

17:02.860 --> 17:05.560
Not a Windows 10 running software.

17:05.700 --> 17:07.740
That's a different conversation.

17:11.090 --> 17:16.510
Again, leading into this, it's the diversity of it all.

17:17.730 --> 17:29.250
Have you ever spent time in a hospital and just looked around and then think to yourself, I wonder how they've implemented this?

17:29.250 --> 17:32.770
A lot of hospitals will offer Wi-Fi.

17:33.590 --> 17:37.330
Those systems are often not segmented.

17:37.330 --> 17:41.610
There's the saying in security, trust but verify.

17:41.830 --> 17:42.670
Right?

17:42.670 --> 17:44.730
We just give everyone access.

17:44.730 --> 17:49.990
All the systems have access to everything because we want to make it easier.

17:51.430 --> 18:00.730
Now I ask you, if you look at this picture, most of those devices are connected onto the hospital network.

18:01.170 --> 18:04.910
These devices all have communications.

18:05.710 --> 18:12.710
But all these devices are most likely very different in how they apply security.

18:12.750 --> 18:20.790
And let me tell you, often we do this thing where security is an afterthought or a post-market situation.

18:20.790 --> 18:34.430
We don't give developers or hardware engineers the information to become security-minded developers, security-minded hardware engineers.

18:34.670 --> 18:40.670
Security can be built into every portion of your pipeline and should be.

18:40.670 --> 18:45.290
We should be taking this as a requirement to look at.

18:45.630 --> 18:49.650
I'm also big that one day these devices will be hacked.

18:49.650 --> 18:57.910
In fact, they might already be hacked because we don't have the data to pull from to say whether or not the device has been hacked.

18:58.490 --> 19:06.630
Always in incident response, we come after the fact and say, oh, if I only had logs, oh, if I only had this piece of evidence.

19:06.630 --> 19:13.410
We should be building in these controls to be able to visualize what's going on on the device.

19:13.690 --> 19:16.210
Now you might ask how I know this.

19:16.210 --> 19:20.410
Well, I have a whole room filled with medical devices.

19:20.490 --> 19:23.410
I have a whole library filled with firmware.

19:23.650 --> 19:26.310
I have been doing forensics for the last year.

19:26.310 --> 19:34.430
I'm trying to determine whether or not there's any logging or whether or not I even have the ability to do a forensic investigation.

19:34.430 --> 19:45.610
And I can tell you that no, because no one considers the fact that these devices will inevitably one day get reached if they have not already.

19:46.850 --> 19:53.650
A big thing that I want to see change is that we have proper standards and rigorous guidances.

19:54.030 --> 19:56.950
These things should be enforced.

19:56.950 --> 20:00.730
They should not be if you want to do the following.

20:01.080 --> 20:07.220
There should be repercussions for MDM not following standards and guidances.

20:08.310 --> 20:14.360
I have spent significant time looking at the NIST standards currently used for medical devices.

20:15.250 --> 20:24.500
These things are referencing machines that have Windows or Microsoft or different protocols.

20:24.500 --> 20:29.820
They don't take into consideration what a medical device is.

20:29.980 --> 20:32.040
I want to see controls.

20:32.140 --> 20:38.640
Controls are there for specific devices, but we need to categorize these first.

20:38.840 --> 20:50.720
And I think before we get ahead, the first and foremost thing that needs to change is the fact that we need to start understanding what a medical device is as well as subcategories of that device.

20:51.460 --> 20:57.800
I think once we have clearer understanding, we can have better standards.

20:58.040 --> 21:08.720
I would love to see a NIST standard specifically catering to medical devices, specifically taking into consideration the unique challenges they face.

21:12.040 --> 21:14.560
And how do I know these things?

21:15.440 --> 21:17.500
Data never lies.

21:17.600 --> 21:21.000
It's the one thing that you can listen to.

21:21.000 --> 21:28.260
Yes, data can be manipulated, but this is data that's collected over long periods of time.

21:29.040 --> 21:33.160
Healthcare has become the biggest target at the moment.

21:33.160 --> 21:39.920
Not only are they facing keeping people alive, they are facing attacks from all avenues.

21:40.340 --> 21:46.640
The internal threat or the malicious actor from within has certainly taken a rise.

21:46.640 --> 21:57.160
I was very shocked to learn the other day that 18% of healthcare workers stated that they would sell patient records for the right price.

21:57.460 --> 22:01.580
We never consider that the greatest threat might come from within.

22:04.130 --> 22:09.730
So now we've spoken a lot about the problems, but there is a saving grace.

22:09.730 --> 22:19.590
There's something that I really believe has the right approach to dealing with the complex problem that is medical devices within a hospital.

22:19.870 --> 22:22.750
It is called the Zero Trust Network.

22:23.530 --> 22:26.170
Trust is neither a zero nor a one.

22:26.850 --> 22:32.010
This turns the whole security on its head, where we no longer just trust but verify.

22:32.010 --> 22:34.210
We verify but never trust.

22:34.370 --> 22:40.010
We no longer have this perimeter-based defense structure that we used to have.

22:40.390 --> 22:59.840
I think most hospitals build this huge wall and make their perimeter hard, but never considering that patients walk in and out of a hospital wearing wearables with embedded devices or, you know, introducing medical devices that are connected.

23:00.590 --> 23:13.050
I've often seen that hospitals get breached via a phishing email or via a system that should not have access to the whole entire network.

23:13.610 --> 23:25.550
This is a very important thing for me, because this could lead to us defining that, you know, the least privilege and the least access that a device should have on a network.

23:25.750 --> 23:34.910
And especially with electronic healthcare records moving to the cloud, not every system needs to have access to that.

23:35.030 --> 23:40.510
We should be limiting what devices have access and how they have access.

23:40.850 --> 23:54.090
And I think one of the biggest things and the most promising things is if we find that a device is no longer conforming to the rules and the controls we've set up, you can revoke the access for that device.

23:55.190 --> 23:59.750
It breaks down the perimeter and makes it more secure.

23:59.750 --> 24:14.270
It makes it more manageable, because now we have the ability to differentiate between devices and we don't have to have a cookie-cutter approach to healthcare security.

24:15.630 --> 24:24.390
Another big thing I realized is us as researchers or the FDA or the MDM, we don't like to play nice together.

24:24.430 --> 24:29.550
We don't like to listen to someone that has a difference of opinion than we do.

24:30.130 --> 24:32.310
We don't like criticism.

24:32.430 --> 24:35.230
We don't like to debate situations.

24:35.250 --> 24:41.230
But the fact remains that working together is the only way that we get to solve healthcare.

24:41.230 --> 24:47.170
After all, it takes a village or even two for that to even happen.

24:48.150 --> 24:56.990
I think it's a smarter way to pull resources together and hit this problem from all sides.

24:56.990 --> 25:04.970
It needs to be a multidisciplinary approach to solving the problem that is healthcare and medical device security.

25:05.130 --> 25:07.910
So let's see some solutions.

25:07.970 --> 25:10.310
We need to define things better.

25:10.590 --> 25:15.410
We need to assign the responsibility and accountability to the parties involved.

25:16.190 --> 25:19.590
We need to not trust implicitly.

25:19.790 --> 25:26.830
We should not put devices into our networks and trust them with the keys to the kingdom.

25:27.010 --> 25:34.930
We should assume that a device is breached at all times, because most likely it is, because you don't know otherwise.

25:34.930 --> 25:40.330
At one point of time, we are gonna see medical devices breached.

25:40.670 --> 25:43.070
Well, they might already be.

25:43.530 --> 25:51.310
We need to standardize and set the tone, the rules of engagements, the rules that are expected from someone.

25:51.310 --> 25:53.830
And by someone, I mean the MDM.

25:54.130 --> 26:01.690
These things need to be defined and clarity needs to be given to what the expectation of a secure device is.

26:02.390 --> 26:05.990
I want to see these things on black and white.

26:05.990 --> 26:09.250
I don't want to have the conversation anymore.

26:09.350 --> 26:17.270
I want a call to action to make things better, to change it now before legacy comes and bites us in the ass.

26:17.910 --> 26:26.870
Because every year we wait, every year we take, it adds so much more to the problem.

26:27.430 --> 26:33.030
At one point, the problem will become unmanageable if we don't do something now.

26:33.830 --> 26:48.050
If you as a researcher find a vulnerability, do the proof of concept, reach out, make things better, but don't just find a problem, find a solution.

26:48.890 --> 26:59.210
Because finding problems are easy, breaking in is easy, but it's finding a way for things to work better that is going to change the world fundamentally.

26:59.210 --> 27:08.890
And it's not one person or two people, but a whole collective effort that will change the future of connected devices.

27:12.170 --> 27:16.270
Thank you very much and please feel free to reach out.

27:16.610 --> 27:21.750
Hit me up on Twitter, email me, go comment on my blog.

27:21.750 --> 27:25.810
But I'm looking forward to your questions and I'm looking forward to the discussion.

27:25.990 --> 27:34.110
And thank you for giving me an opportunity to get on my soapbox and for once be taught, shout in a room about things that are making me angry.
