Hi David,

You may have seen the recent article from Matthew Schwartz at Bank Info Security on the surge in attacks targeting IoT devices (here's the article in case you haven't read it yet).

Matthew writes about how hackers continue to use Mirai derivatives and EternalBlue exploits to compromise IoT devices.

We've written many articles on securing IoT (as well as being recognized for our solutions' ability to monitor IoT). And while the number of Mirai- and EternalBlue-related attacks is staggering, we find that securing IoT devices is actually pretty simple. Here's a short blog we wrote on what you can do today to reduce your risk:

How to reduce your IoT threat surface

But if you're looking for a more robust solution with additional capabilities beyond IoT security, check out our network traffic analytics system, Scrutinizer. Here's a 30-day trial to get you started.
