U.K. government releases draft proposals for new IoT security regulations. The proposals would strengthen password protections and improve how vulnerabilities are reported. The goal of these proposals is to provide greater security protections as the number of connected devices, including security cameras, routers, smart home devices and autonomous vehicles, increase.
