Thursday, January 26, 2017

Juniper’s Internet of Things for Security Providers: Opportunities, Strategies, & Market Leaders 2016-2021 cautions that the scale of connectivity related to consumer IoT will lead to unmanageable cybersecurity risk created by botnets in excess of 1 million units. The research found that botnets that disrupt internet services form part of the near-term threat landscape and will be used for more malicious purposes in the future. Botnets are expected to be used not only to disrupt services, but also to create a distraction in order to enable multi-pronged attacks. While the research calls on IoT manufacturers to implement security-by-design, it also found the market is wide open for challenger security vendors.
