THE NEW RULES
OF IOT SECURITY Building Resilience for 2025
IOT & CONNECTED DEVICES
As the global IoT footprint surges past 19 billion connected devices in 2025, enterprises face a rapidly expanding attack surface. Spending on IoT security is projected to surpass $11 billion this year, with forecasts showing investments could reach $50 billion by 2026 to counter the growing risk. Yet despite these efforts, one in three data breaches globally now involves an IoT device, and over 50% of deployed devices still carry at least one critical vulnerability. These devices — from industrial PLCs to healthcare monitors and smart city sensors — deliver transformative value but bring a fundamentally different set of risks compared to conventional laptops, servers and cloud applications.
