Here is the article mentioned during the ACE meeting today:
https://www.networkworld.com/article/3223952/internet-of-things/5-reasons-why-device-makers-cannot-secure-the-iot-platform.html

As you can see that there are some misconceptions about our IETF work. It is easy to conclude that "Security and privacy for small memory microprocessor based IoT devices are still being invented" reading some IETF drafts.

This motivated  me to start a webinar series on "Securing IoT applications with Mbed TLS" to clarify topics raised in this article and other IoT security myths. The first part is available for download:
