In October 2015, the FBI advised citizens to be vigilant with their IoT devices. Cybercriminals have progressed from targeting computers and networks to people, medical devices, power grids, cars, kitchen appliances and other connected devices. Smart locks, TVs, refrigerators, light controls, security systems, baby monitors and automobiles can be used to steal personal information, spread malicious code, eavesdrop or even interfere with the operation of machinery.
