Device Security Matters More Than Ever
summary
Connected devices are critical infrastructure and attackers shift to firmware update paths and weak supply‑chain links while regulators like the EU Cyber Resilience Act make security mandatory. Practical outcomes are specific: deploy secure boot and signed updates, anchor trust in a hardware root of trust or hardware security element, isolate crypto and remove unused code. Surprising scale and lifetime matter — devices last 10–20 years, a single compromised fish‑tank camera led to a casino breach, and a 1% update failure on 100M devices equals a million bricked units.
