What is IoT?:


The Internet of Things (IoT) describes the network of physical objects—“things”—that are embedded with sensors, software, and other technologies for the purpose of connecting and exchanging data with other devices and systems over the internet. These devices range from ordinary household objects to sophisticated industrial tools. With more than 7 billion connected IoT devices today, experts are expecting this number to grow to 10 billion by 2020 and 22 billion by 2025. Oracle has a network of?device partners.

Whether true or not, this is a rather extreme case, but it is useful in explaining the dangers of the?Internet of Things?(IoT). With all manner of gadgets and objects, connected to the internet?– and your home/work network – the options for entry have?never been greater for hackers.

Yet, the internet keeps expanding. You can find smart versions of Office lights, TVs, teddy bears, and even?coffee machines?you can control with a smartphone. It also seems that with each new IoT product there?comes a new exploit, another story of?ransomware?or?DDoS attack. It's because of this that?governments and experts have called for?'secure by design' products,?effectively banning default passwords.

IoT also creates issues around data privacy, particularly with audio-based services, such as smart speakers?that?are often reported to secretly listen to our daily conversations on the grounds of service improvements.
