Outdated and unsecured IoT devices are a serious risk for UK businesses

Businesses are running old, outdated IoT

The article from TechRadar highlights the significant security risks posed by outdated and unsecured IoT devices to UK businesses. According to research by Nominet, 99% of UK businesses use IoT devices, but many of these devices are not updated regularly, leaving them vulnerable to cyberattacks. The study found that 70% of businesses have devices that are no longer supported by the manufacturer, and 60% have devices that are over five years old. These outdated devices are prime targets for hackers, as they often have known vulnerabilities that can be exploited. The article emphasizes the need for businesses to prioritize IoT security by regularly updating devices, implementing strong password policies, and using network segmentation to isolate vulnerable devices. Failure to address these issues could lead to serious data breaches and financial losses for UK businesses.
