This is like building a hotel in a gangster infested area and expecting to be safe. The internet is not a safe space and if your systems are connected to the internet expect chaos or take the responsibility to secure your systems. The problem here is this is the kind of constant battle that may not be economically viable for most. IOT is a deadend without better architecture, these devices cannot be in the open internet and vulnerable to hijacking. Those working on these systems may think otherwise but once businessess are disrupted and have to pay a price they will not use the technology. How many businesses can justify spending more and more resources on security, consultants and fighting off extortionists.
