Re: AT&T: IoT Cyberattacks Increase 400%
@af Now it seems they really must invest in security since they released a nifty report. I wonder what the report will say a year from now. Will we have better security then?

The optimist in me hopes to see great strides but the cynic in me thinks that everything will stay the same.

@Michelle Well, there are three people on my plan, and I use a personal hotspot to access the Internet because AT&T, my provider, unfortunately does not provide Wi-Fi (yet), at least not in my neck of the woods. A hotspot uses up a lot of data. I guess I am really not doing myself any favors by not having the cable company provide the Internet for me along with a TV subscription. I find everything costs a lot these days.

Re: Spam
@elizabethv AT&T offers a family plan, which saves money. Maybe Verizon does not have a similar deal. Possibly Verizon has better service? I can't make the comparison because I've never used Verizon. If other people are like me, I don't like to switch service providers. It seems like too much trouble. Also, you get used to a certain loyal customer status, where you feel like the provider may be giving you breaks on things, like waiving certain fees, etc ...
400% Increase ???
AT&T: IoT Cyber Attacks Increase 400% in 2016
400% Increase??? ............ I would have never guessed this. That's a crazy increase in stats. I see gigantic growth in cyber attack world.
Re: Spam
@dc:
Couldn't agree more with what you state.
Carriers must provide that protection for customers. If that confidence is not provided, that may stand out as a limitation for further growth in IOT.

@Michelle:
Oh, ya...this surely explains some what.
Re: AT&T: IoT Cyberattacks Increase 400%
@srufolo1:
Intersting stats, Thanks for sharing.
Looking at these numbers, i am very concerned of how much needs to be plugged in yet for cycber security protection.
Re: Spam
@Michelle:
The prices are really crazy. I see that carriers are coming up with competitive price package.But the baseline price isn't getting any better. Till that changes, i can't expect prices getting lowered any time soon.
Re: AT&T: IoT Cyberattacks Increase 400%
@Michelle, @af:
We better hope for a better security model. The question is are we confident about getting there confidently? At the same time we have to be positive and hope for the best to arrive.
