The 'S' in IoT stands for Security

summary
IoT devices ship with default passwords, unpatchable firmwares and exposed services and attackers already exploit cameras, routers and even cars and pacemakers leading to Mirai-scale terabit DDoS and real remote hijacks. The fix shown is pragmatic: use container-friendly platforms like Ubuntu Core and balena, cryptographically signed transactional updates, kernel confinement (AppArmor/seccomp) and CI-built images (balena claims 10–70% smaller). A digital‑signage rollout of 20,000 devices moves from brittle scripts to reliable, updateable hardware.
