Summary
The Internet of Things (IoT) refers to the network of interconnected devices, ranging from smart home appliances to industrial sensors, that communicate and exchange data over the internet. These devices are embedded with sensors, software, and other technologies, enabling them to collect and exchange data with each other and with central systems.
Security in IoT is crucial due to the vast amount of sensitive data being transmitted and stored by these interconnected devices. Without adequate security measures, IoT devices are vulnerable to various cyber threats such as hacking, data breaches, and malware attacks. Ensuring the security of IoT systems involves implementing robust encryption protocols, authentication mechanisms, and access controls to protect data integrity and confidentiality. Additionally, continuous monitoring and updates are essential to detect and mitigate any security vulnerabilities that may arise in IoT devices and networks.
