Internet of Things (IoT) devices require meticulous hardening to mitigate potential security risks. Begin by changing default passwords to strong, unique ones — reducing susceptibility to brute-force attacks. Regularly update device firmware to patch vulnerabilities and address security weaknesses.
Additionally, consider segmenting IoT devices onto a separate network, isolating them from your primary network. This proactive measure minimizes the potential impact of breaches, prevents unauthorized access to sensitive systems, and preserves your network’s integrity.
