Understanding Cyber security Vulnerabilities in IOT Devices

My final assessment’s unified topic is understanding Cyber Security Vulnerabilities in IOT services. Cyber security entails all innovations, policies, and practices utilized in protecting computer networks, systems, and data from unauthorized admittance, disruption, disclosure, destruction, or modification targeted at curbing cyber-attacks and threats. IOT devices are susceptible to cyber security vulnerabilities because of the absence of secure updates, fragile default settings, uncertain ecosystem interfaces, and uncertain communication channels that can contribute to data breaches, illegal admittance, and system-wide attacks. Examples of IOT vulnerabilities include hardcoded passwords, improper device management, insecure networks, insecure data transfer and storage, insecure ecosystem interfaces, absence of proper privacy protection, and insecure update mechanisms.

I settled on the topic because of the upsurge of IOT and its vulnerabilities such as security challenges, ubiquitous IOT devices, vulnerability landscape, and attack surface expansion. The potential effects of IOT security breaches include privacy violations, data breaches, financial loss, and system disruptions. Career opportunities also inspire my decision because cyber security is a swiftly developing sector with a high demand of experts, and it also provides a chance to grow skills such as threat modeling, penetration testing, and vulnerability evaluation, and last, it aids in staying ahead of the curve as the field is continuously evolving.

Pursuing the field avails multiple study areas such as ethical hacking through comprehending the legal implications of cyber security and testing, cryptography concerning studying about decryption and encryption methods necessary for shielding data in transit and at rest, and vulnerability evaluation critical for budding the potential to establish and assess vulnerabilities IOT systems and devices, and last, penetration testing essential for exploring how to ethically hack IOT devices to determine weaknesses.
