My topic is the emergence of Smart Home technology and the pervasive lack of knowledge of security practices of the average user. As this technology has become more acceptable in our society, it opens a vast amount of new vulnerabilities. This fact coupled with the lack of knowledge of security practices has produced a situation where users are opening themselves and their personal information to a significantly increased amount of risk. Providing users with education that arms them with the ability to better protect themselves and their personal networks is essential to addressing this problem. The lack of knowledge of security measures is a problem that affects a significant number of internet users in the United States and the freedoms that we enjoy exasperates this issue that is being exploited by foreign actors.
The biggest lack of understanding regarding smart home networks is just how vulnerable these networks are to attack. The increase in number of devices connected to the internet provides attackers with more potential vulnerabilities to exploit. This issue is made worse due to the fact that many of the smart home devices that are being connected to the internet have no security measures inherent to the devices. Ali and Awad wrote, “An individual can directly attack an interconnection device…or field device using its network of local communication interface, and a device can be impersonated using its faulty certificate” (Ali and Awad, 2018). The more devices that are connected, the more vulnerabilities there are to be exploited. The best way to solve these issues is to provide education into the best security practices. Also, the equipment manufacturers are producing devices with no inherent security and they need to be held accountable by producing equipment that has some level of security measures in place.
The principles that are laid out in this study, and the others that I have found, all lay out different aspects of the problem and generally shape the problem as one of a lack of knowledge. Making this knowledge more accessible is the best solution to solving this problem. All of the resources that I have found lay out these facts and all point to the issues that exist with smart home technology. Moving this into the capstone course will not be very difficult as I have found a very large amount of information to utilize and could expound on this topic with additional research.
After going through this process I feel significantly more comfortable with the prospect of the capstone course. I have to admit that the 50 – 100 page paper seemed incredibly daunting, but breaking down the process in this course has done a lot to ease my mind about the difficulty of the capstone. The part that worries me now is the ability to time manage effectively once I get to that point, but I will have to worry about that when I get to that point.

Great topic and will be very interesting to read about everything you find. It is amazing how vulnerable smart devices area and the lack of security applied to them and other smart devices out on the market. But what is just as bad is that so many people don’t understand the threat these devices have on their personal information and their lives. I chose a similar topic of Government Policy and Regulation Effect on IoT security standards and found some great references that show how little the government is doing to protect the consumer. Unfortunately, it is very difficult to get anything accomplished with our government and I really don’t expect anything significant to happen anytime soon. Your topic of educating the consumer is a great one.<o:p>
Like you, I am very glad we are able to take a class like this that really prepares you for the capstone course. This is only my second class in my graduate program and so far, I am very impressed with the level of professionalism and genuine concern with the success of each student. The 50-100 pages is very frightening to me but like you I feel this class has done a great job to prepared me for the final capstone paper. Time management is my worst enemy and I really need to focus on that. Good luck to you.<o:p>
