A network of interconnected devices that communicate and share data to perform tasks. By 2025, there will be 75 billion IoT devices globally (Statista, 2024). The global IoT market is expected to reach $1.6 trillion by 2030 (Fortune Business Insights). 90% of IoT devices collect personal data, from location to health metrics (IDC, 2023).
What is IoT ? The Internet of Things (IoT) refers to a network of interconnected devices that communicate and exchange data with each other over the internet. The Internet of Things integrates everyday things with the internet.
Why do we need IoT? 1. Enhanced Efficiency: IoT automates processes and optimizes resource usage, reducing operational costs and saving time. 2. Real-time Monitoring: Provides real-time data on systems and environments, enabling proactive maintenance and quicker response to issues. 3. Improved Decision Making: Analyzes vast amounts of data to provide actionable insights, leading to better, data-driven decisions.
Why do we need IoT? 4. Increased Connectivity: Connects devices and systems for seamless communication and coordination, improving overall functionality. 5. Innovative Solutions: Drives innovation by enabling new applications and services across various industries, from smart cities to healthcare.
What is Threat in IoT ? 1. An IoT attack is a malicious attempt to exploit vulnerabilities in internet-connected devices, such as smart home devices, industrial control systems, and medical devices. 2. Attackers may gain control of the device, steal sensitive data, or use the device as a part of a botnet for other malicious purposes.
What is IoT Security ? 1. Anything connected to the Internet is likely to face attack at some point. 2. IoTdevices are computerized Internet-connected objects, such as networked security cameras, smart refrigerators, and WiFi-capable automobiles. IoT security is the process of securing these devices and ensuring they do not introduce threats into a network. 3. They can utilize an IoT device to steal data, launch distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks, or try to compromise the rest of the linked network once they have control of it.
Risks of IoT Devices: What are IoT Devices? Devices like smart home gadgets (thermostats, cameras, lights, etc.), wearable devices, smart appliances, and connected vehicles. Vulnerabilities: IoT devices often have weak security, can be hacked, and may provide attackers with entry points into home or business networks.
Common Threat to IoT Threat Device Hijacking Description Hackers gain unauthorized control over IoT devices, often purposes. Sensitive data is intercepted while being transmitted between networks. Attackers have the ability to read and change communications between IoT devices and servers. Malicious software is installed on IoT devices to disrupt functionality or demand ransom. for malicious Data Interception devices and Man-in-the- Middle Attacks Malware Ransomware &
Common Threat to IoT Threat Denial-of- Service (DoS) Description Attackers overload devices or networks, making them unavailable to users. Hackers can gain access to IoT systems or data by exploiting poorly secured APIs. Passwords of IoT devices are easy to guess. IoT devices that are not updated are open to hacking attacks. Attackers manipulate physical devices to gain access to sensitive data or systems. Insecure APIs Weak Passwords Lack of Updates Physical Tampering
Best Practices for IoT Device Security: 1.Change Default Passwords: 1. Always change the default password to a strong, unique one. 2.Regular Firmware Updates: 1. Ensure IoT devices are regularly updated to fix security vulnerabilities. 3.Network Segmentation: 1. Isolate IoT devices on a separate network to limit potential breaches. 4.Use Secure Communication Protocols: 1. Opt for devices that use encryption and secure protocols (like HTTPS, WPA3). 5.Disable Unused Features: 1. Turn off features like voice recognition or cameras when not in use. 6.Monitor and Audit Devices: 1. Regularly check for unusual activity or signs of intrusion.
How do identify Fake Apps? Check the reviews Look for grammar mistakes Check the number of downloads Research the developers Be cautious about images and screenshots Review permissions 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.
IoT Real Time Applications Smart Homes: IoT enables automation of lighting, heating, security systems, and appliances, creating energy-efficient and convenient living environments. Home
IoT Real Time Applications Smart Cities: IoT solutions manage traffic, monitor air quality, and enhance public safety through connected infrastructure.
IoT Real Time Applications Healthcare: Wearable devices and remote monitoring systems track patient vitals, ensuring timely interventions and personalized care. Agriculture: IoT-powered sensors monitor soil moisture, weather conditions, and crop health, optimizing irrigation and boosting yield. Industrial IoT (IIoT): Sensors and smart devices monitor equipment health, optimize production, manufacturing processes. and reduce downtime in

Role of IoT in a Hyper-connected world 1. The role of IoT in a Hyper-connected world helps in connecting a whole ecosystem to the internet. 2. This ecosystem may be comprised of people, processes, devices, and data, and is geared to offer superior user experiences. 3. IoT is aiming at exploring new opportunities, providing richer experiences, creating new capabilities. 4. IoT is about the sharing of information in real-time, any performance- related issue in one part of the ecosystem can unfavorably impact the other as well.
Best Mobile Practices : 1.Use Strong Passwords/Authentication: 1. Enable biometric authentication (fingerprint, facial recognition). 2. Use strong, unique passwords and PINs. 2.Enable Device Encryption: 1. Protect stored data by encrypting the device. 3.Keep Software Up to Date: 1. Regularly update operating systems and apps to patch vulnerabilities. 4.Install Trusted Security Apps: 1. Use reputable antivirus and anti-malware apps. 5.Avoid Public Wi-Fi for Sensitive Transactions: 1. Use a Virtual Private Network (VPN) when connecting to public Wi-Fi. 6.Backup Your Data: 1. Regularly back up your device data to cloud storage or an external device.
