IoT in the Enterprise per ZScaler

Nice analysis by ZScaler of enterprise IoT traffic they see.  Scary part is, most of these seem to be devices that are probably outside the normal security scopes (media devices, etc.) and 41% show NO encrypted traffic at all.  91% show some plaintext traffic.  So post Mirai, and everything else, we are still pushing out more and more garbage onto the networks to be exploited and turned against us.  Skynet won't be a super computer, it is going to be a collection of a billion TVs and toasters that reaches self awareness.  https://www.zscaler.com/resources/white-papers/iot-in-the-enterprise-2019.pdf

I love the idea of a self aware toaster.
