Internet of Things (IoT)

The growing popularity of the Internet of Things (IoT) in our industry is driven by the increasing proliferation of IoT devices, which expand the potential attack surface for cybercriminals.

These devices could be within a wide range of internet-connected physical gadgets like smartwatches, fitness trackers and smart home appliances. An estimated 64 billion IoT devices are projected worldwide by 2026, and the trend towards remote work further fuels this growth.

However, IoT devices often have limited processing and storage capabilities compared to traditional computers and smartphones, making it challenging to implement robust security measures like firewalls and antivirus software.

Security threats are becoming a prominent topic within cybersecurity discussions, necessitating heightened attention and protection strategies in this evolving landscape.
