How to protect IoT devices from cyber threats

We’re looking forward to the Resilient IoT + Trustable AI Conference at the IET in London later this month! Our Managing Director, Jennifer Williams, will join the speaker lineup to discuss IoT cybersecurity - exploring how connected devices can be built, tested, and certified with security in mind from the start. Alongside Jen, Jamie Philcock from our Business Development team will also be there, meeting attendees and chatting about how organisations can strengthen their connected device security and ensure compliance with new IoT regulations. With legislation and standards shaping the future of IoT, this event brings together experts from across the sector to share practical guidance on creating secure, trusted, and resilient technology. 📍 The IET, London 🗓️ 30th October 2025 Find out more here: https://lnkd.in/e99F_PP4 #ResilientIoT #TrustableAI #IoTSecurity #CyberSecurity #ConnectedDevices #Secarma #CyberResilience #ProactiveSecurity

The Future of Telecom: From Bit Transport to Intelligent Security Fabric. The future of telecom isn’t about faster connectivity — it’s about smarter, safer networks. As IoT and AI reshape industries, Mobile Network Operators must evolve from bandwidth providers to trusted intelligence and security partners. Shield-IoT empowers MNOs to transform connectivity into intelligent security — providing visibility, detecting threats, protecting assets, meeting compliance, and unlocking new revenue streams through agentless automated AI-based behavioral intelligence and real-time protection. 👉 See the attached blog to discover how Shield-IoT enables operators to move from connectivity to trusted intelligence, and offer differentiated, value-added services to their business customers. #5G #IoT #CyberSecurity #Telecom #NetworkIntelligence #ShieldIoT

If you’re a mobile network operator, this is a must-read. The rise of AI agents and autonomous workflows will create an entirely new class of network demand — ultra-low latency, deterministic performance, and ubiquitous coverage of IoT devices which has traditionally been an underserved attack vector …until now. Human intervention won’t be fast enough to protect these machine-driven environments. Future networks must be as intelligent and adaptive as the AI systems they serve with near-instant security response. The next wave of MNO growth won’t just come from more gigabytes — it will come from enabling secure AI agent ecosystems that transform industries.

Connectivity alone isn’t enough anymore. With botnets, redirection, and silent data leaks on the rise, MNOs are uniquely positioned to deliver built-in protection—no device changes, privacy-aligned, and scalable across fleets. Here’s how to productize that advantage into a marketplace-ready security offering your customers can turn on in a day.

Most companies think about #cybersecurity in terms of #IT infrastructure that is replaced every few years, but forget about long lifecycle assets. 🔁 These systems are expected to last for up to 30 years in some cases, and tend to be where the real blind spot lies. IoT, OT, or CPS systems share one critical trait: they outlive today’s #encryption and #security models. 🌐 Discover why your security needs to survive as long as your infrastructure does: http://bit.ly/4q0eu37  

Cybercriminals increasingly target smartphones, IoT devices, and other endpoints. Verizon's Mobile Security Index reported that 70% of public sector organizations experienced a security incident involving a mobile or IoT device. Verizon actively combats these threats by integrating security into its networks and leveraging over 25 years of security leadership.

The success of your IoT deployment hinges on one fundamental choice: connectivity. But in a landscape of competing providers and complex technical specifications, how do you identify the solution that will truly serve your business needs? We've broken down the essential factors to evaluate, from network coverage and device management to security and support capabilities. #AerisIoT #AerisIoTWatchtower #IoTConnectivity #IoTSecurity #IoTDeployment #CellularIoT #Cybersecurity #ConnectedDevices #IoTDevices #Partner #Blog

IoT security matters more than you think. You might see just a vacuum cleaner, but what if that smart device becomes the weak link in your digital infrastructure? IoT is everywhere: in your home, in your car, in your factory, and yes, attackers know that too. When connected products aren't properly secured, they can become open doors to your data, systems and privacy. At Drivesec we help companies build secure, resilient IoT products. Swipe through to see how even the most ordinary object can carry extraordinary risk and contact us at https://lnkd.in/d2BxQUEg to see how we can help you mitigate it. #IoTSecurity #Cybersecurity #SmartDevices #EmbeddedSecurity #Drivesec
