The Security Risks of Smart Bulbs: Understanding the Vulnerabilities

Think your smart home is safe?

Inside every smart bulb and Wi-Fi plug hides a mini computer — and that’s exactly where hackers get in. Open debug ports, unsigned firmware, and weak passwords are turning everyday gadgets into silent entry points.

In this short video, we explain how a single connected light can expose your entire network — and what engineers are doing to stop it.

🎯 Topics covered:

- Smart bulb vulnerabilities
- IoT firmware flaws
- Mirai botnets and DDoS attacks
- Real engineering-level fixes (secure firmware, segmentation, monitoring)
