Safe at Home? Taking Smart Home Security to the Next Level
Home network security has never been more important. Customers are enhancing their homes with an increasing number of smart home devices, many of which present unknown security risks.Unlike a corporate network, there is no professional (or team) dedicated to keeping the in-home network secure. Providing protection therefore presents challenges because of the large number of home networks, their small scale, the multitude of device types and operating systems, and the limited resources and capabilities of end-users. All the IoT devices connected to home WiFi represent possible points of compromise. Home users, many of whom do not have in-depth technical knowledge, are concerned about the security of their home network, but don’t always know what to do.
