Description: Group Risk Assessment in the context of IoT security refers to the systematic process of identifying and analyzing risks associated with a set of interconnected devices or users. This approach allows organizations to understand vulnerabilities that may arise not only from an individual device but also from the interaction between multiple devices within a network. The assessment involves gathering data about the operational environment, identifying potential threats, evaluating the consequences of a possible attack, and determining the likelihood of these events occurring. By considering the group context, risk patterns that may not be evident when assessing devices in isolation can be identified. This is particularly relevant in the IoT realm, where the proliferation of connected devices has expanded the attack surface and created new risk dynamics. Group Risk Assessment not only helps prioritize security measures but also facilitates the implementation of more effective mitigation strategies tailored to the specific characteristics of interconnected systems and their users.
