This letter explores the uses of a micro moving target IPv6 defense (μMT6D). In this initial experiment we assess the power consumption overhead and detail the overall security benefits gained from use of this technique. Moving target defenses were seen as game changers in the security field and now we must change the game once more and look toward their application for IoT devices. With a need to provide privacy and a defense against targeted attacks on resource constrained devices that are a part of vital communication and control systems, μMT6D is a viable solution that we continue to develop and assess for future use.
