How Hackers Exploit IoT Vulnerabilities
Hackers use various techniques to exploit IoT security gaps, including:
π Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) Attacks β Intercepting data between devices and networks.
π Device Hijacking β Taking control of smart devices to perform malicious actions.
π Data Breaches β Extracting sensitive personal and corporate data.
π Brute Force Attacks β Cracking weak passwords to gain device access.
π‘ Case Study: In 2017, a casino was hacked through a smart fish tank thermostat. The attackers gained access to the casinoβs network and stole data.
