Here we are in the future 😅

Here the other day MegaFon stated that the amount of data used by smart devices will grow by 126% in 2023-2024

Over the past three years, the number of smart devices in Russian homes has more than doubled. This dynamic is associated with the desire to make housing more comfortable and safer.


Smart device traffic is distributed like this:
50% of gadgets consume up to 1 MB - these are barriers, electronic locks 🔑
38% of devices use up to 50 MB 🪄
12% consume more than 50 MB, which is typical for smart home appliances 💡

💬 The most popular hubs for managing a smart home are smart speakers, which account for 84% of sales among all smart devices. They are followed by sockets, relays and switches, and large household appliances close the top three. 🌐

A typical portrait of a smart home user is a man from 35 to 44 years old 😥
Women make up 45% of all users 👋

I myself use a couple of smart devices at home and I honestly admit that I was able to experiment with some of them ( I managed to gain unauthorized access to one of the smart speakers ) 👨‍💻

On the one hand, this is amazing - the capabilities of smart homes are growing, and they really make our lives easier. But on the other hand, as a security specialist, I am embarrassed by their weak security. Most smart gadgets still leave much to be desired in terms of security, and this creates a real risk for users 🫣

Therefore my advice: use smart devices with caution . Remember that the safety of such technologies is still very much in question. 😵

Do you use smart devices? 😎
