Number of IOT attacks on the rise

We notice that the number of IoT devices is increasing rapidly, but that the security isn’t always up to date. Cyber ​​criminals use poorly secured IoT devices for DDOS attacks or as a proxy for other malicious actions. IoT devices are usually stationed outside the reach of the owner, who are usually not immediately aware that they have become a victim of a hacker.

Thingsdata can advise and guide organizations in securing against these types of attacks. Simple measures: always install the latest firmware and change the default passwords. It is also very worthwhile to apply a VPN so that the IoT devices are not accessible via the public internet.
