Hackers seem to see the latest precautions coming and prepare for the latest phase of a never-ending game with an entertained smile upon their faces.<\/p>\n<p>Surely, then, IT security professionals are nervous people.<\/p>\n<p>This seems clear from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncipher.com\/2019\/pki-iot-trends-study\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" data-component=\"externalLink\">a new survey<\/a> perpetrated on the part of the hardware security company <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncipher.com\/about-us\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" data-component=\"externalLink\">nCipher<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The surveyors asked 1,800 IT security professionals in 14 countries about vital elements such as the increased use of IoT products in businesses such as retail, agriculture, healthcare, and manufacturing.<\/p>\n<section class=\"sharethrough-top\" data-component=\"medusaContentRecommendation\" data-medusa-content-recommendation-options=\"{&quot;promo&quot;:&quot;promo_zd_recommendation_sharethrough_top_in_article_desktop&quot;,&quot;spot&quot;:&quot;dfp-in-article&quot;}\">\n<\/section>\n<p>Sixty-eight percent of these professionals worried that hackers will simply alter the function of an IoT device. Fifty-four percent are concerned that IoT devices will come under the remote control of people with nefarious purposes or merely cruel senses of humor.<\/p>\n<p>Somehow, though, when asked to name the five most important IoT security capabilities, these same nervous sorts placed delivering patches and updates to IoT devices, well, last.<\/p>\n<p>Some mutter that it isn&#8217;t clear who should be responsible for the Public Key Infrastructure and keeping up with all these updates and the security challenges IoT presents.<\/p>\n<p>This is unfortunate, as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncipher.com\/2019\/global-encryption-trends-study\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" data-component=\"externalLink\">some studies show<\/a> that a mere 28% of IoT devices enjoy encryption, as do a mere 25% of IoT data repositories.<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;d think there was enough angst about security for it to be a priority. But it&#8217;s like insurance, isn&#8217;t it? Many companies just take the chance that they&#8217;ll never need it, or they worry about the cost for so long that it&#8217;s too late.<\/p>\n<p>I plowed through this data with some desperation. It&#8217;s as if IT security professionals know what should be done, yet don&#8217;t believe their organizations will ever evince the responsibility and forethought to do it.<\/p>\n<p>I discovered, though, that the IT security professionals were also asked personal, as well as professional questions. Here&#8217;s where the true fears came out.<\/p>\n<div class=\"relatedContent alignRight\">\n<h3 class=\"heading\"><span class=\"int\">Internet of Things<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<p>Thirty-six percent confessed they were afraid they&#8217;d be spied upon by an internet-connected device. The same number feared they&#8217;d have money stolen.<\/p>\n<p>Twenty-four percent fear personal embarrassment as unholy information about them would be leaked.<\/p>\n<p>I, though, feel a particular empathy for the 21% who are afraid that pranksters will hack their connected toilets.<\/p>\n<p>They aren&#8217;t alone about their domestic fears.<\/p>\n<p>The same percentage of IT security professionals fear pranksters would try and embarrass them through their connected home thermostats.<\/p>\n<p>Please imagine, then, the hell of being at home in an internet-connected world.<\/p>\n<p>A considerable number of IT security professionals worry they&#8217;ll be sitting in front of <em>Dancing With The Stars<\/em>, concerned that Sean Spicer&#8217;s paso doble is getting them hot beneath the collar.<\/p>\n<p>Only later will they discover that some fiend has remotely made their house boil.<\/p>\n<p>Then there&#8217;s the same number of petrified many who worry that bad things will happen to them on the toilet. Because of someone else&#8217;s penchant for perverse toilet humor, you understand.<\/p>\n<p>I know that technology exists to make everything better. Yet the road toward that betterment is long and tortured.<\/p>\n<p>We know that too many engineers design new products to see what they can do, without necessarily considering what others might see what they can do with those products.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile the security industry, like the law, desperately tries to catch up.<\/p>\n<p>I leave you, though, with the thoughts of % of this survey&#8217;s respondents. These alleged security professionals claimed they had no security fears about the Internet of Things.<\/p>\n<p>I think they should be forced to own connected toilets.<\/p>\n<p> READ MORE <a
