Study Notes

Internet of Things (IoT)

IoT Security

  • Vulnerabilities:
    • Weak passwords and authentication
    • Unpatched software and firmware
    • Insecure data transmission
    • Lack of encryption
  • Threats:
    • Hacking and unauthorized access
    • Data breaches and theft
    • Malware and ransomware attacks
    • DDoS attacks
  • Best practices for IoT security:
    • Implement secure communication protocols (e.g. HTTPS, SSL/TLS)
    • Use strong passwords and two-factor authentication
    • Regularly update and patch software and firmware
    • Encrypt data in transit and at rest
    • Implement access control and authorization
