## Summary

Steve Clark, Security Technologist at WISeKey, discusses the evolution of IoT security, emphasizing that device identity is the foundational element of trust. He explains how secure elements and PKI infrastructure protect against impersonation and counterfeiting, particularly in critical infrastructure like smart cities. Clark advises organizations to start with threat modeling and objective-based requirements rather than assuming specific hardware needs, noting that the industry is consolidating around uniform security architectures.
