IoT Device Vulnerabilities

 

Awareness:

Smart home devices like cameras, thermostats, and voice assistants can be exploited if not properly secured.

Solution:

1. Change Default Passwords:

   • Use strong, unique passwords for each device.

2. Update Firmware Regularly:

   • Check the manufacturer’s website or app for firmware updates.

3. Disable Unnecessary Features:

   • Turn off remote access or voice activation if not needed.

4. Use a Separate Network for IoT Devices:

   • Set up a guest Wi-Fi network to isolate IoT devices from main devices.
