/in Internet SecurityCybersecurity sector continues to heat up The Washington Post
The Washington area has long been a hotbed for cybersecurity talent, owing to a quiet but influential community of hackers, network specialists and software experts serving the U.S. government agencies waging cyberwarfare. That talent base has become the backbone of a fast-growing local industry focused on corporate cyberdefense, which has produced influential local companies including Mandiant, Sourcefire and Tenable. In the past week, that industry has seen a boost. Milpitas, Calif.-based cybersecurity giant FireEye announced Tuesday that it paid $ 250 million to acquire McLean-based cyber…
DARPA: Monitoring heat, electromagnetic and sound outputs could assess safety of IoT devices
/in Mobile SecurityDARPA is looking for a platform that can tell whether Internet of Things devices have been hijacked based on fluctuations in the heat, electromagnetic waves and sound they put out as well as the power they use.
The agency wants technology that can decipher these analog waves and reveal what IoT devices are up to in their digital realms, according to a DARPA announcement seeking research proposals under the name “Leveraging the Analog Domain for Security (LADS)”.
The LADS program would separate security monitoring from the device itself so if it is compromised, the monitoring platform can’t be affected.

Amazon to use a neighbor’s data center to heat its new Seattle high-rise

In addition, the operator of the data center, Clise Properties, will save some money on electricity and a lot of water. Earlier this year, Clise and McKinstry formed a company called Eco District to design and build the system.
