Abstract

IoT is a nightmare for security and privacy issues and a honeypot for cyber criminals. Cybercrime and threats of cyber security is much closer to connected home ecosystems futures because of the increase adaptability of IoT than ever been expected. Most of the effort is focused on the defence mechanisms of cooperate and national infrastructures, not realizing that one of the weakest link in this systems comes from the devices used within IoT. The presentation will analyse implications and challenges of cyber security to smart devices in IoT. It will also highlight the fact that while these devices provide more features and functionality, they also introduce new risks.
