CISSP® Certification Domain 3: Security Architecture and Engineering Video Boot Camp for 2022 - IOT (Internet Of Things)

The video discusses the Internet of Things (IoT) and its security challenges. It highlights how IoT devices, such as smart TVs and thermostats, often lack proper security measures, making them vulnerable to attacks. The video provides a case study of a security breach through a smart TV and emphasizes the importance of changing default passwords, applying patches, and segmenting IoT devices on separate VLANs to enhance security.

What is a common security issue with IoT devices?

• They often use default passwords and logins.

• They are always updated automatically.

• They are designed with security as the top priority.

• They cannot connect to the internet.

Which of the following is a recommended practice for securing IoT devices?

• Ignoring available patches.

• Segmenting IoT devices on the network.

• Using well-known ports for all devices.

• Keeping default passwords unchanged.

Why is it important to segment IoT devices on a network?

• To prevent unauthorized access to other network devices.

• To increase the speed of the network.

• To make it easier to connect to the internet.

• To reduce the cost of network maintenance.

What was the vulnerability exploited in the real-world example provided?

• A computer with a strong firewall.

• A smartphone with automatic updates.

• A smart TV with outdated software.

• A light bulb with no internet connection.

What is a key takeaway regarding IoT security from the video?

• IoT devices should be left on default settings for convenience.

• Smartphones are the least secure IoT devices.

• Segmenting smart devices can enhance security.

• The best security system is effective even with weak links.
