You could say Ravi Thatavarthy knows 20 million things about the Internet of Things.

That’s because he is the CISO for iRobot, which has sold more than 20 million robotic devices, making it the leading global consumer robot company on the planet.

“We are living in a world of connected products,” he says. “My belief is that security combined with privacy will become a brand differentiator.”

We’re excited that Ravi is giving the keynote at SecureWorld Houston on May 17th, entitled "IoT and Smart Home Security Trends: Reducing the Fear Factor."

He’ll give an update on the latest trends in IoT and Smart Home technology and explain what it means for all of us to evaluate the risks vs. the benefits of these devices.

Plus, he’ll talk about the responsibilities of product companies towards consumers, which will allow for greater confidence in these devices going forward.

CISO Ravi Thatavarthy is part of a powerful agenda for the 11th annual SecureWorld Houston on May 17th at the Norris Conference CityCentre. View attendee levels, and register for a rich day of learning and networking that is focused on the future of cybersecurity and leadership.

Also, we still have limited room for approved vendor partners to support the conference. Contact our Houston Event Director, Marsha Wick, with any questions. MarshaW@secureworldexpo.com
