As the number of smart devices in private households increase, so do the opportunities for cybercriminals to attack, according to TÜV Rheinland.

Experts view these key cybersecurity trends as critical to understand in 2020.

Smart speakers, fitness trackers, smart watches, thermostats, energy meters, smart home security cameras, smart locks and lights are the best-known examples of the seemingly unstoppable democratization of the "Internet of many Things".
