Abstract
As smart homes and cyber-physical systems become increasingly integrated into our daily lives, they also become susceptible to new and sophisticated forms of cyberattacks. This chapter explores the emerging landscape of new age attacks targeting these interconnected environments. It delves into the diverse range of threats that exploit vulnerabilities in smart home devices and their underlying cyber-physical components. Through comprehensive analysis and case studies, this chapter sheds light on the potential consequences of such attacks and emphasizes the importance of proactive measures to safeguard these systems. By understanding these evolving threats, researchers, practitioners, and policymakers can collectively work toward fortifying the security and resilience of smart homes and cyber-physical systems.
