Security and Cyber Threat Risks of Iot Devices
Abstract
Research objective: The goal of this study is to find important governance problems and risks that could affect the management of IoT devices in important growth areas and important infrastructure. The study's objective is to systematically examine vulnerabilities within IoT infrastructure, encompassing hardware design flaws, application software deficiencies, network configuration mistakes, and supply chain threats.
Practical significance: The research results give us a useful way to protect against cyberthreats that are important to the IoT ecosystems that are developing, like critical infrastructure, healthcare systems, industrial operations, and everyday consumer apps. It proposes pragmatic strategies for the implementation of technical, organizational, and strategic defense mechanisms to alleviate organizational risks.
Research conclusion: IoT security needs a broad strategy, not just one or two technological fixes. Endpoint devices, network segmentation, cloud API security, and data provisioning are all important parts of this strategy. The study also stresses how important it is to monitor things in real time, check software monitoring, and switch to a post-quantum cryptography standard to deal with future risks.
Keywords: IoT security, cybersecurity risks, network segments, endpoint protections, cloud APIs, data provisioning, supply chain security, post-quantum cryptography, smart devices, software-assisted, authentication, zero vulnerabilities
