The article introduces about the Internet hacking become worse now, because computers are being embedded into physical devices and will affect lives, not just our data. The first reason internet is insecure is the buyers are not willing to pay money, time, or markets for security of their devices. Buyers do not have enough security awareness for that, because sometimes accepting the bad things are cheaper than fixing them. Users should be aware with that the computer is everywhere currently, such as cars and refrigerator. Attackers may attack the devices with computers. In order to deal with the problem, there should be a standard to make sure insecure products will not harm users. The minimum acceptable security should be included in the standard.
Hi Xinteng,
Great points. I think that the Internet of Thing also increases the burden on current fragile network security. All too often an IoT device was not designed with security as a core concept or even an afterthought. This has already resulted in numerous home and office network security breaches. Additionally, once an attacker has remote access to or through an IoT device, they may be able to access other devices on the compromised network.
