[0002] In the current field of IoT technology, with the widespread application of IoT devices, the security management of IoT devices has become a critical issue. The rapid increase in the number of IoT devices and their widespread use in different fields and scenarios have significantly increased the security risks of IoT devices. However, existing IoT device security management methods and technologies are often insufficient and cannot meet the needs for comprehensive, efficient and personalized management of IoT devices.

The data analysis module uses advanced algorithms to extract key features and potential risk factors. The security strategy formulation module formulates personalized strategies based on the analysis results, improving the accuracy of security protection and reducing costs. The security execution module implements personalized strategies to ensure the security of the IoT system. In the implementation process, the distribution area of ​​IoT devices within the management area is first obtained to construct an electronic map. Then, sub-areas are divided, monitoring points are set, and sensors are deployed, covering physical status, operational performance, and security protection. Sensors are installed in accurate locations and equidistant monitoring nodes are set. By monitoring the device status and summarizing the data within the monitoring period, a device status set is constructed, providing data resources for subsequent analysis and strategy formulation.

[0074] High risk. Take immediate emergency safety measures, conduct a comprehensive inspection of the equipment's safety settings, carry out in-depth security reinforcement, activate the emergency plan, and notify relevant personnel for emergency handling.

[0075] Regularly evaluate and update security strategies to adapt to the ever-changing security needs and environment of IoT devices.

[0076] The formula for calculating risk level is:

[0077] Let the risk level be X, the risk factor assessment value be R, and the low-risk threshold be... The high-risk threshold is ;

[0078] when At that time, X = low risk;

The risk assessment unit builds an assessment model based on the extracted key features to predict potential risk factors. The results output unit outputs the key features and potential risk factors to the security strategy formulation module.
