  The hunt for IOT | The networks building deathstar-sized botnets from IOT minions

  For over a year now, F5 Labs and our data partner, Loryka, have been monitoring the ongoing hunt by attackers to find vulnerable IoT devices they can compromise. In our first report, DDoS’s Newest Minions: IoT Devices, our research proved what many security experts had long suspected: IoT devices were highly vulnerable to exploit, the level of interest in exploiting them was high, and distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks using these devices were already occurring. Our findings and conclusions in Volume 11 rang true, and the new numbers show even steeper growth than we had imagined.
