Listen "IoT and Personal Device Security"
Episode Synopsis
IoT and Personal Devices explores the security risks associated with internet-connected personal devices, collectively known as the Internet of Things (IoT). The author, Christopher Rees, emphasizes that common household and business gadgets like smart doorbells, voice assistants, and even cars can serve as entry points for cyberattacks if not properly secured. Highlighting vulnerabilities such as outdated software and default passwords, illustrates how these can lead to serious breaches, including becoming part of botnets like Mirai. We'll cover practical advice for both home and work environments, stressing the importance of changing default credentials, updating software, segmenting networks, and maintaining an inventory of connected devices to mitigate these risks.
