Cyber Security Consumer Routers

The 'Norton Core' Monitors IoT Devices for Suspicious Activity

— January 5, 2017 — Tech
With the rise of the Internet of Things, devices have become more vulnerable to massive cyber attacks, and the Norton Core is a router that keeps one's home devices shielded by a sphere of anti-virus protection. The router uses advanced machine learning and a global intelligence network provided by Symantec, a leading security firm, to keep connected homes safe.

IoT devices are simply too convenient to ignore, but those connected household gadgets pose legitimate cyber threats. Because each IoT device accesses the network on its own, hackers can harness the hundreds of thousands of devices around the world to orchestrate DDoS attacks on whatever site they choose. The Norton Core router monitors the IoT devices in one's home (as well as one's regular Wi-Fi connected devices) and makes sure they aren't behaving strangely. If it believes they have been hacked into, it can cut off their access until it resolves the problem.
Trend Themes
1. Iot Security - The rise of IoT devices and their vulnerability to cyber attacks is creating a need for advanced security solutions such as the Norton Core router.
2. Machine Learning for Cybersecurity - The Norton Core uses advanced machine learning algorithms to monitor IoT devices and protect connected homes from cyber threats.
3. Global Intelligence Networks for Cyber Protection - Symantec's global intelligence network provides the Norton Core with threat information to protect connected homes from potential cyber attacks.
Industry Implications
1. Cybersecurity - The rise of IoT devices is creating new opportunities for cybersecurity firms to develop advanced solutions such as the Norton Core router.
2. Home Automation - The Norton Core router provides a solution for protecting smart home devices and could be integrated into home automation systems.
3. Machine Learning - The use of machine learning for cybersecurity presents an opportunity for innovation and growth in both the cybersecurity and machine learning industries.
