IoT is great but also brings a security risk right along. We were all pretty scare when the Mirai Botnet attacked our grandma and created a toaster zombie DDOS war machine. We dont want that to happen very often.

Grandma already has a smartphone and a smart hub (Alexa, google smart home etc). Using these two we can make grandma safer.

-Grandma interacts with a front end of the smart hub on her smartphone app. -With the press of a button all default passwords are changed: done using SSH and TLC scripting. These are coded by hand using factory default password and port number, this way we guarantee it will work with the devices -The smarthub creates a second WLAN and all IoT devices connect to it. The smarthub provides IPTables to drop any packets between any device other than the gateway and smarthub. Security by isolation -Grandma interacts with IoT devices only through hardened smarthub and WAN.
