Iot sem monitoramento é risco: uma análise de vulnerabilidade e soluções
Renata Freires Guimarães Lino · RCMOS - Revista Científica Multidisciplinar O Saber · 2025
The growing adoption of the Internet of Things (IoT) across corporate, industrial, and domestic environments has significantly expanded the digital attack surface. However, the absence of effective monitoring systems turns this innovation into a critical risk vector. This article analyzes the main vulnerabilities associated with the lack of observability in IoT devices, highlighting common failures such as weak authentication, insecure communication, and outdated firmware. The research demonstrates that without continuous monitoring, it is impossible to detect anomalous behavior, prevent intrusions, or ensure compliance with security standards. Furthermore, the lack of operational visibility compromises the scalability and reliability of connected systems, directly impacting digital governance and strategic decision-making. Practical solutions are presented, including the implementation of real-time monitoring platforms, the use of artificial intelligence for predictive fault detection, and integration with automated response systems. The study concludes that monitoring is not merely a technical measure but a strategic imperative to ensure the security, efficiency, and sustainability of IoT ecosystems. The adoption of observability practices should be considered from architectural planning through continuous operation, as it is essential to mitigate risks and enable the safe growth of intelligent connectivity.
