Join us in Atlanta on April 10th and explore the landscape of security workforce. We will explore the vision, benefits, and use cases of AI for security teams. Request an invite here.
IoT sensors and the smart devices they’re connected to are among the fastest-growing attack vectors in 2024, with opportunistic attackers offering a growing number of tools and services on the dark web to compromise them.
Adversaries are becoming more opportunistic. They are looking to cash in on the fast-growing market for IoT devices and technologies. IoT Analytics predicts that global appending on IoT technologies will grow from $280 billion in 2024 to $721 billion by 2030.
“In 2024, the potential of IoT innovation is nothing short of transformative. But along with opportunity comes risk. Each individual connected device presents a potential access point for a malicious actor,” writes Ellen Boehm, senior vice president of IoT Strategy and Operations for Keyfactor. In their first-ever global IoT security report, Digital Trust in a Connected World: Navigating the State of IoT Security, Keyfactor found that 93% of organizations face challenges securing their IoT and connected products.
IoT sensors are a cyberattack magnet
There was a 400% increase in IoT and OT malware attacks last year. The manufacturing industry was the top targeted sector, accounting for 54.5% of all attacks and averaging 6,000 weekly attacks across all monitored devices. Mirai and Gafgyt botnets dominate all activity, accounting for 66% of attack payloads. Mirai and Gafgyt infect then use IoT devices to launch distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks, causing billions in financial losses.
