This work proposes strategies to mitigate emerging risks in smart Internet of Things (IoT) devices within homes. With the significant increase in these devices, cybersecurity became a primary concern. Therefore, this study focused on identifying potential risks and vulnerabilities, using surveys to assess current security practices and knowledge about protective measures among other aspects related to cybersecurity. Based on these results, recommendations were made for users, to strengthen security in their IoT devices and promote good practices to create a safer and more protected home environment against possible cyber threats.
