Building Secure Wi-Fi Networks in Smart Homes
Building Secure Wi-Fi Networks in Smart Homes
Smart home technology is booming, but security concerns are holding it back. A recent Parks Associates study reveals that 72% of smart home owners worry about data privacy, and 30% of potential buyers hesitate due to these concerns.
Many manufacturers rely primarily on standard Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA, WPA2, WPA3) and Transport Layer Security (TLS). Unfortunately, these measures can't protect against all types of attacks. Logical attacks, such as buffer overflow and over-the-air (OTA) code injection, account for more than 50% of attack vectors and often exceed the protection capabilities of Wi-Fi and transport layer security features.
Silicon Labs addresses these challenges head-on with their Wi-Fi System-on-Chip (SoC) solutions, SiWx917 and SiWx915. These solutions incorporate 8 advanced security features that complement standard protocols to protect devices and build consumer trust.
