consider the security layers we have in place and vulnerabilities we discover as we take these
5 steps. It is imperative that we take care to protect our assets by performing timely patching
and update of our IoT’s.
Identify security objectives
In performing this residential assessment, we must identify any possible threats and
how they would in turn flow into our local network. It is important that we understand the
actual objective of securing our local network. As administrators of our local network in our
residence, we need to understand that, periodic updates to our Internet of things device and
also timely patching to our laptops and desktop computer systems within our network.
Performing these periodic activities will in fact help us identify any vulnerabilities. One of
the important factors here is to understand that passwords should not be allowed to be
remembered by our browsers or any of our applications because this in itself can become a
vulnerability. It is crucial that we use hard passwords that have capitalized letters numbers
and characters and that are at least 12 characters in length.
