Category: Business and Finance

Email: query-bd3w@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: Motley Fool - The Blueprint

Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 17 October

Query:

I am writing an article for small business owners explaining
what they need to know about IoT security. What does that mean,
why is it important, how do you secure your data and systems?
What are the most common IoT devices in business, and why is
each vulnerable? What do they need to know about IoT devices?
What are some particular vulnerabilities to be aware of with IoT
devices, and how do you address them? Most importantly, I'm
looking for three to five ways they can secure IoT devices in a
business setting, whether on-premise or remote.

Requirements:

I'm looking for security experts who frequently work with small
business owners on these issues and can speak from experience.
Please answer questions, if possible, in your response, so I can
gage if your experience is relevant to my audience. The more
detail you give in your response, the more likely I am to reach
out for you to be part of the story. Remember that this audience
is probably not overly technical, so I have to answer these key
questions in plain language, not jargon. Looking forward to
hearing from you!
