IoT meets IPv6: The Perfect Storm?
summary
Mirai (2016) used hard-coded credentials to infect thousands of webcams and home routers and generate up to 1 Gbps DDoS attacks; its open-source code spawns many variants. IPv6 brings a 128-bit address space so home devices get unique, globally routable addresses; ISPs report ~40% IPv6 backbone traffic in Germany and ~30% in the US. Neighbor Discovery exposes local addresses and multicast enables efficient C2, so expect devices reachable from the internet and require automated secure patching and zero trust.
