Internet of Things - November - December 2018

The number of connected devices increases it also leads to exploitation of safety vulnerabilities present in IoT devices which are varying in standards. Because of the ability of the devices to connect to the internet and their widespread usage, IoT products are prime targets for cyber criminals as they take advantage of lack of adequate protections. The security challenges with respect to Internet of things are not known to most of the people who use it. Also most of them are hardly aware of extent of impact that a security breach on IoT can cause to an individual. It has now become a necessity to ensure security for IoT devices.

The Newsletter ‘IoT Security’, is an effort in this direction by C-DAC, to create awareness on the need of Internet of Things and at the same time sensitize people regarding Common cyber-attacks that effect IoT devices, Challenges in IoT and a few Case Studies.
