Beware voice controlled technologies they pose a cyber security risk

Voice controlled technologies represent a cyber security risk and that’s a problem as during the Covid-19 crisis as they are in high demand. According to ABI Research, the Coronavirus pandemic is expected to lead to a 30% increase in sales of voice control devices in 2020.

There are unfortunately a host of devices on the market that are manufactured without the proper security protocols in place. This means hackers can exploit them to access your home network and potentially steal personal data, access webcams or tamper with the settings of your devices remotely.
