IoT Security: Is Your Smart Home Spy-Proof?

The Hidden Risks of Convenience

By 2026, the average home has over 20 connected devices. From smart fridges to security cameras, every "Smart" device is a potential entry point for hackers. Kian Technologies aims to make your digital home a fortress.

Why IoT Devices are Vulnerable

  • Weak Default Passwords: Many devices ship with passwords like "12345" which users never change.
  • Lack of Updates: Unlike your phone, your smart bulb might never receive a security patch.

Steps to Secure Your IoT Network

  • Separate Network: Create a "Guest Network" specifically for your IoT devices. If a camera is hacked, they can't reach your main laptop.
  • Disable UPnP: Universal Plug and Play can allow devices to open ports in your firewall automatically—turn it off.
