Data encryption secures information transmitted between IoT devices and systems, ensuring it remains confidential and protected from unauthorized access.

Securing OTA updates involves using encryption, digital signatures, and verified update sources to prevent tampering or malicious modifications.

Malware attacks can compromise IoT devices by exploiting vulnerabilities. Regular updates, monitoring, and strong security practices can reduce these risks.

Denial-of-service attacks overwhelm IoT devices, disrupting functionality. Rate limiting and network segmentation can mitigate these attacks.

Device identity management ensures unique identifiers for IoT devices, enhancing traceability and preventing unauthorized device impersonation.

Unsecured IoT devices can lead to data breaches and privacy violations by exposing sensitive user information to attackers.
