So many devices are now connected to the Internet and potentially vulnerable. The basics definitely matter – changing default passwords, ensuring our internet is hosted on DDoS protection servers, etc. But who was going to warn the traffic engineer that their security camera is vulnerable or the new parents whose IP-connected baby monitor gets scanned by foreign hackers. We just want things to work and don’t realize that we’re at risk – even if our device is the target and not ourselves.
Have you checked out this Mirai vulnerability scanner? Something everyone should do – whether a random home user or a large enterprise (and how many have CISOs?). It scans your IP and can pinpoint vulnerable devices: https://www.incapsula.com/mirai-scanner.html https://www.incapsula.com/mirai-scanner.html
