systems (e.g., MS Windows 7). Another interesting finding was that over 50% of IoT devices connected to business enterprise networks are consumer-grade products, which typically have lesser cyber-protection built-in, which increases the risk to an organization using them. It can be assumed that aviation and
logistics companies’ devices of this nature may have similar numbers. With the increase in remote
workers due to COVID-19, hackers are able to reach more targets more easily with less effort. This pandemic is creating a gold rush for the cyber- criminal world. Home networks and all of the
devices connected to them are a much easier target than most businesses, due to better perimeter security managed by IT professionals. But if a secure VPN is not required by which to access an enterprise network from a remote location, hackers will have a much easier path to a business IT configuration via an infected home computer, and be able to launch malware when someone logs remotely.
PROTECTING YOURSELF AND
YOUR IOT DEVICES Let’s look at home networks first. In this day and age, most people who use a computer should have some sort of security software on each computer and smartphone. Basic security suites from Norton, F-Secure, Kaspersky and a host of others have been available for reasonable prices for the last 25+ years. There is no reason for everyone not to have a paid or freeware security product installed on every computing device you own. There is no point in re-addressing this here. Business and government users typically have a security suite from their IT departments that is monitored for intrusions or malware

Eliminates both pathogenic and non-pathogenic microorganisms, leaving no chemical residue
and are much more likely to have better security overall. But with regards to securing your
IoT devices, much of the critical steps that need to be taken to better reduce your risk of one of them being attacked successfully can also
be mitigated to a degree. Here are several precautions you may choose to protect your IoT devices from cyber intrusions and potentially losing control over them.
