The FBI’s Portland, Oregon office has published an advisory discussing how to build a digital defense in the Internet of Things. The advisory discusses the security risks of using devices that have built-in Internet connections, such as digital assistants, smart watches, security equipment, thermostats, and even kitchen appliances. While providing additional conveniences and amenities for their owners, they can also open a door for hackers into your business or home. The advisory provides some suggestions for addressing the vulnerabilities in these devices and protecting yourself and the environments in which you work and live. Read the advisory at the FBI.
