You have a friend that owns a local mid-sized business that sells “smart” IoT devices that help connect normal home appliances to the internet. Your friend’s business is growing quickly and he or she is concerned about security of their devices, eCommerce site and the company building network. You are a local cybersecurity expert and have been asked for recommendations on how they can look to implement security measures to ensure they are not easily hacked and end up in the news.
Utilizing knowledge learned in this course and online research, create a (minimum) two-page double-spaced paper with security recommendations for your friend as it pertains to the IoT devices they sell, the eCommerce site in which they sell the devices and the company network including Wi-Fi. Section the paper accordingly with headers to make it easier to focus on each individual area that requires security recommendations. Make sure to reference learned material for embedded operating systems for the IoT devices. When possible, point the reader to how they can implement your recommendations. Make sure to cite any sources if recommendations come from further research.
