Increased Iot Adoption Portends More Serious Cybersecurity Vulnerabilities Unless Enterprises Recognize the Need for Improved Iot Components. In the Case of Fish Tank, It’s Particularly Ironic That Pun Phishing Morphed Back Into Phishing. Phishing Attempts to Steal Valuable Information Through Deception. For Example, an Email Obtains. Confidential Information by Pretending to Be From a Boss or Co-worker. Rather Than Attacking a System Directly, Phishing Uses Social Engineering to Attack a Traditionally Weaker Part of a Oman Telemarketing Data Computer System: the User. But in the Battle of the Weakest Links, We Have a Rapidly Emerging Contender: Iot Devices. Unfortunately, Iot Doesn’t Top the List of Weakest Links as We Users Tighten Up Our Security Capabilities. Although Better User Education Continues to Be Proposed, It is of Each User and the Resiliency of a Defense, by Definition, Depends on the Smallest Weakness. Conversely, Iot Devices May Become the Preferred Path for Attackers Because Following the Iot Path Rather Than the User Path Creates a Better Roi for Attackers. The Use of Roi is Important Here. It's Easy to Think of Security as a Technical Problem That We Hope Some Smart Techie Can Solve. Although Many Smart People Are Working on This Problem, It is Almost Impossible.
