A security audit of 10 popular Internet-connected devices identified an alarmingly high number of vulnerabilities. The study lasted three weeks and was performed by researchers from Hewlett-Packard’s Fortify division. It targeted devices from some of the most common IoT categories: TVs, webcams, home thermostats, remote power outlets, sprinkler controllers, hubs for controlling multiple devices, door locks, home alarms, scales and garage door openers. Researchers identified a total of 250 vulnerabilities ranging from issues that could raise privacy concerns to serious problems.”]
