Headline: Royal Holloway: Attack mapping for the internet of things
With the introduction of each internet of things (IoT) device to a home network increasing the attack surface and risks of a security threat, this article in our Royal Holloway security series puts forward a practical model for investigating the security of a home network to evaluate and track what pathways an attacker may use to compromise it. The model allows an individual to understand the attacks, evaluate whether the attack is feasible within the context of a specific network, and finally action it, reducing the risk.

- With the introduction of each internet-connected device in a home network the attack surface and risks of a security threat increase.
- With remote working widespread, home networks that were once used only for personal reasons are now transmitting sensitive business-related data, making individuals and home networks a valued target of cyber criminals.
- This article proposes an IoT smart home attack map that allows an individual to evaluate the security of a network and reduce risks.
