IoT, ngeSpanish njenge "I-Intanethi yezinto" yayiyeyona nto iphambili kuhlaselo lwe-DDoS olushiye i-PlayStation Network kunye neenkqubo ezininzi ze-intanethi ngaphandle kwenkonzo izolo. Kwaye yile ndlela, abahlaseli befuna ukuba sibone ukuba kuyingozi kangakanani ukudibanisa yonke into kwi-intanethi, kwaye bavule amehlo ethu malunga nokhuseleko oluncinci olwenziwa ziinkampani kolu hlobo lweenkqubo. Ingcali yezokhuseleko (uBrian Krebs) uxele ukuba olu hlaselo lwe-DDoS lwenziwe ngezixhobo ezixhumene nenqanaba elincinci lokhuseleko, ngenxa yoku basebenzise i-malware ebizwa ngokuba mirai.
Oku ikakhulu kukungena nokuphuma kuhlaselo olushiye i-Twitter isebenza iiyure ezimbalwa izolo, kunye nenkqubo yokudlala yenethiwekhi yePlayStation kunye neenkqubo zokuhlawula ezinjengePayPal. Babengengabo bodwa, abanye abafana neAmazon, Spotify, Netflix kunye neReddit bajoyina uluhlu. Ukuhla kweenkonzo rhoqo ngenxa iiseva zabo beziphazanyiswa zizixhobo ze-IoT ezazifakwe yile malware sele ikhankanyiwe. Kuyavela ukuba abaluthathi ngokwaneleyo ukhuseleko lwethu xa kuziwa kwi-IoT, kwaye kufuneka kuthathwe amanyathelo.
Olu hlaselo lwenziwa ngabadlali bevidiyo, iikhamera ze-IP kunye neemveliso ezahlukeneyo ezilinganayo, ngakumbi ezo zenziwe yinkampani I-Xiong Mai Technologies, yemvelaphi yaseTshayina. Ngesi sizathu, abasebenzisi kufuneka babe nomdla kukhuseleko lwenethiwekhi, kuba kubonakala ngathi iinkampani zisinika inkonzo, kodwa hayi izitshixo. Ngale ndlela, singayithelekisa nesithuthi esithengiselwa sona ngaphandle kwamabhanti okugcina okanye ii-airbags, into engaqondakaliyo kwaphela ngexesha esizifumana sikulo. Esi yayisisilumkiso sokuqala esivela kubagculeli, esingathandabuzekiyo ukuba siza kuphinda-phinda kwiinyanga ezizayo.
Ngaba uhlaselo oluchaphazelekayo? Ngaba ibingayi kuba ngaphezulu njengoku ukuhlaselwa okuchaphazelekayo okanye olu luhlaselo oluchaphazelekayo?
