Business leaders, pioneers and forward-thinking companies gather in Las Vegas to showcase their latest devices at <a href=\"https:\/\/securingtomorrow.mcafee.com\/consumer\/consumer-threat-notices\/ces-2018\/\">The International Consumer Electronics Show (CES),<\/a> where next-generation innovations take center-stage and the world gets a glimpse into the future of IoT. I had the pleasure of attending CES with my colleagues this year and was blown away by the breadth of technology showcased. While the innovations stretched across many industries, I\u2019d like to focus on the reoccurring themes in home and personal technology and how we can secure ourselves through the gadget-filled year ahead:<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Smart Homes Will Become \u201cSmarter\u201d<\/strong><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>My favorite devices are the ones designed to enhance the smart home. Companies are striving to advance technology and make our lives easier in the comfort of our homes. From smart <a href=\"http:\/\/www.crn.com\/slide-shows\/internet-of-things\/300097786\/20-crazy-connected-iot-products-at-ces-2018.htm\/pgno\/0\/3\">thermostats<\/a> to smart assistants, there is certainly no shortage of household innovation; and companies like Google and Samsung are making strides to contribute to the smart home ecosystem. During CES, Samsung <a href=\"https:\/\/securingtomorrow.mcafee.com\/consumer\/consumer-threat-notices\/ces-2018\/\">pledged<\/a> to make all of its devices \u201csmarter\u201d by 2020, linking together all devices via its\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/news.samsung.com\/global\/samsungs-smartthings-cloud-bringing-the-iot-dream-to-life\">SmartThings cloud<\/a>.\u00a0Meanwhile, Google announced that Google Assistant\u00a0will now be built in (or compatible) with a range of household products including your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/news\/schlages-sense-deadbolt-will-soon-work-with-google-assistant\/\">smart doorbell<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/news\/hunter-fans-give-google-a-home-on-your-ceiling-at-ces\/\">ceiling fan<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>As our homes become increasingly connected, the need to secure our internet-connected devices is critical. More IoT devices mean more points of data to attack and leverage for cybercrime. Hackers have the ability to <a href=\"https:\/\/securingtomorrow.mcafee.com\/consumer\/consumer-threat-notices\/data-privacy\/\">access your personal information<\/a> through connected home devices, which poses a threat to your identity. Consider using a service with\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/securehomeplatform.mcafee.com\/\">built-in security\u00a0<\/a>to ensure every device in your home is well protected\u2015 especially the ones that often fly under the radar. Secure routers and gateways can protect all of your connected devices, even the ones without screens.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Smart Technology Will Track Your Sleep<\/strong><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Technology is even changing the way we sleep, with smart sleep solutions for consumers. At CES 2018, Terraillon announced <a href=\"http:\/\/www.marketwired.com\/press-release\/ces-2018-terraillon-highlights-their-connected-wellness-homni-sleep-solution-2244303.htm\">HOMNI<\/a>, a device designed to help improve a user\u2019s sleep environment. This device tracks the sleeper&#8217;s movement, sending your sleep data to a free app so that users can see how well they\u2019ve slept. There\u2019s nothing technology can\u2019t solve for, including a good night\u2019s sleep. However, when it comes to our personal data, it\u2019s wise to be aware of how your data is being tracked or used.<\/p>\n<p>As the use of connected devices in our homes and personal lives grow, so does the need for security beyond your PC or mobile phone. Many of the devices that we welcome into our daily routine aren\u2019t equipped with <a href=\"https:\/\/securingtomorrow.mcafee.com\/consumer\/consumer-threat-notices\/most-hackable-gifts\/\">proper security controls<\/a>. It\u2019s important to remember that these connected devices often run on our personal information, information such as your name, age, location \u2013and in this case, your sleeping habits. While a sleep tracker may collect your information with the intentions of helping perfect your sleeping patterns, it has the potential to put your information in places that you <a href=\"https:\/\/securingtomorrow.mcafee.com\/consumer\/consumer-threat-notices\/data-privacy\/\">might not intend<\/a>. This is another example of why it\u2019s exceedingly important to secure the connection at its source: your home.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>\u201cAsk Alexa\u201d Will Live in Your Eyewear<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Amazon Alexa has the ability to communicate with just about every connected device, so it\u2019s no wonder that the Alexa Voice Service will have the ability to connect with your glasses soon, too. During CES, Vuzix announced that its latest pair of <a href=\"http:\/\/time.com\/5096994\/ces-2018-vuzix-blade-google-glass\/\">AR glasses<\/a>, the Vuzix Blade, can communicate with Amazon Alexa. Blending augmented reality with AI assistant\u2019s functionality, this headset acts as a fully functional computer with the ability to send email and text notifications via Bluetooth through the processing power of Android and unparalleled display.<\/p>\n<p>Amazon Alexa has become a pseudo-family member in many households, offering assistance in the kitchen and even reading bedtime stories to children. To keep Cybercriminals from gaining access to your <a href=\"https:\/\/nakedsecurity.sophos.com\/2017\/01\/27\/data-privacy-day-know-the-risks-of-amazon-alexa-and-google-home\/\">personal data<\/a> , be sure you enable an extra measure of security, like setting up a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.usatoday.com\/story\/tech\/columnist\/komando\/2017\/12\/08\/3-essential-privacy-settings-your-amazon-echo\/933944001\/\">PIN code<\/a> for your voice command purchases.<\/p>\n<p>Adding an extra layer of security to your smart devices is key to becoming an empowered consumer in today\u2019s day and age. By taking these extra steps you\u2019ll be able to enjoy the benefits of a secured smart home.<\/p>\n<p>Interested in learning more about IoT and mobile security tips and trends?
