The Internet of Things (IoT) has revolutionized the way we interact with the world, but it has also introduced a new set of security threats. This report delves into the various types of IoT security threats and provides insights into how to mitigate them.
Types of IoT Security Threats
- Data Breaches: Unauthorized access to sensitive data stored or transmitted by IoT devices.
- Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) Attacks: Overloading IoT devices to make them unavailable to legitimate users.
- Malware: Malicious software designed to damage or disrupt IoT devices and networks.
Mitigation Strategies
- Strong Authentication: Implement strong passwords and multi-factor authentication to prevent unauthorized access.
- Regular Updates: Keep IoT devices up-to-date with the latest security patches.
- Network Segmentation: Isolate IoT devices from critical systems to limit the spread of attacks.
