Despite its relatively recent inception (2008/2009), the Internet of Things (IoT) industry is one of the fastest-growing markets in the world. The number of IoT-connected devices exploded from 15.4 billion in 2015 to 75.4 billion in 2025, but smart device security hasn’t always been a priority as manufacturers scramble to release devices as quickly as possible.
Related to this, Comparitech researchers have released a study to answer the following questions:
- Where in the world are smart devices the most and least secure?
- Which countries protect consumers and smart device users through adequate legislation and labeling?
- And which countries have the highest number of vulnerable internet-exposed devices?
