"Only 47% of Cybersecurity Pros are Prepared to Deal With Attacks on Their IoT Devices"

In a new study, it was found that fewer than half (47%) of cybersecurity professionals have a plan in place to deal with attacks on their IoT devices and equipment.  These findings come at a time in which 48% of organizations admitted to experiencing a cyberattack against their IoT or connected devices and equipment in the last year alone. Just over a quarter (27%) of participants reported feeling ‘very confident’ that their personnel would know how to protect against such attacks, while 38% participants claimed they are currently in the process of developing a plan.  IoT devices are found in many homes and businesses, so it is important that the security of IoT devices are taken seriously.
