Nearly half of businesses do not protect their full IoT suite.

New research from Kaspersky indicates that 43% of businesses don't protect their full IoT business suite, leaving them vulnerable to cybersecurity breaches and data compromises.

The global number of IoT devices is expected to grow nine percent over the next three years, bringing the total number of devices to 27 billion IoT connections.

As the number of botnet DDoS attacks on IoT devices continues to balloon in both volume and scale, it is more important than ever to make sure an organization's full IoT suite is secured and prepared for potential cyberattacks.

An IoT specific approach suggested by Kaspersky is 'cyber immunity' defined as an IoT device being linked through automated devices without any additional security functions.
