Re: More meta data
Great points, all, Dr. T. I appreciate your point of view regarding decryption, too. You are correct in that engineers can often harden in-flight communications, but have a tendency to forget to create rigid controls around at-rest data and metadata. This is something Jimmy and I covered in the GMSA IoT Security Guidelines, as well as my McGraw Hill book manuscript. More organizaitons need to understand how failed key management in the endpoint can result in a full break of the IoT ecosystem.

Re: Interesting post
"... Without a doubt many people will buy an unsafe offering ..."

There is a recent research results I just read somewhere, people were asked whether they would be an autonomous car that protects the driver or others for greater good. Most answered as cars protecting themselves. When we really feel our skin on the line we go with secure option. Sometime we do not chare where our names, phones or addresses are compromised.

"... Any child will be shaped by the culture, people, and rule sets ..."

And the technology. People wonder why millennial do not buy cars, they do lots of researches and try to come up with an explanation.  Answer is simple, they do not need it, there is Uber.

This is how it works naturally. You will never find countries and companies coming together and refining common ground, they only look for their own profits.

" ... a security certification lab ..."

I am less favor for and authority telling us that it is secure more like IoT vendors taking the responsibility and making it secure. Again, IoT devices will be more personal so people would expect standard level of security embedded.

Re: Encryption
"... Encryption is an imperative component in modern technology ..."

Agree, it is just not end to end but at rest encryption is mandatory and also key management. Remember there is decryption for each encryption.

Agree, it is already defining how we live our daily lives, it will certainly be having further impact in coming years.

True, unless they hack the encryption too.

"... Almost all education teaching faculties are aware of major social media sites ..."

They may but some do not release how impactful they could be, while social networks and media are good they also expose critical information for hackers.

The 10 Most Impactful Types of Vulnerabilities for Enterprises Today
Managing system vulnerabilities is one of the old est - and most frustrating - security challenges that enterprise defenders face. Every software application and hardware device ships with intrinsic flaws - flaws that, if critical enough, attackers can exploit from anywhere in the world. It's crucial that defenders take stock of what areas of the tech stack have the most emerging, and critical, vulnerabilities they must manage. It's not just zero day vulnerabilities. Consider that CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog lists vulnerabilitlies in widely used applications that are "actively exploited," and most of them are flaws that were discovered several years ago and have been fixed. There are also emerging vulnerabilities in 5G networks, cloud infrastructure, Edge applications, and firmwares to consider.
