For most of the early growth in the IoT, we didn't incorporate any traditional security methods such as firewalls and intrusion detection systems. The belief was these tiny devices were not an attractive target to hackers, or they couldn't possibly be susceptible to an attack. However, many IoT devices are vulnerable as they're small, have minimal processing, and are generally not able to defend themselves. As a result, many have moved away from the traditional approach and have adopted a zero trust model. Zero trust is an approach to cybersecurity that assumes no absolute trust for users, devices, or…
