Visible Friends Become Invisible Enemies – The Price of Convenience

Abstract

The rapidly growing technical and technological development, as well as the digital transformation and the spread of information technology, have made IoT (Internet of Things) devices increasingly popular. Today, these devices are present almost everywhere, from smart homes and autonomous cars to smart security devices and IoT based production lines. Value no longer only exists in material form and is not only manifested in the physical space but can also be created and stored in cyberspace. For this reason alone, it is important to discuss and understand the risks associated with these devices, and to be prepared to prevent them, both in the real physical space and in cyberspace.
