How Tekk Support keeps Homeowners and their Families Safe

A smart home is defined by the presence of network-enabled devices that can be controlled through your phone, tablet, or even your voice: app-controlled lights, smart thermostats, voice assistants, video doorbells, and 24/7 security systems are just a few of the smart home devices that you may be familiar with.

Every smart home device serves a different purpose: smart thermostats help customers save energy, 24/7 security systems keep the family and home safe, and centralized control systems make it easier to manage lights, locks, TVs, and sprinklers all from one device. By simplifying everyday life through user-friendly technology smart home devices offer a new level of convenience, comfort, and control.

With the comfort and convenience a smart home provides it's no wonder they are steadily rising in the market. However, the technology that makes it possible to manage smart devices is the same technology that poses dangers to smart homeowners.

Smart home devices are intuitive and as long as you can get online you can access all your devices remotely. The convenience of such connective access brings certain risks that homeowners must be aware of. For example, if a person can hack into your wifi they can gain access to all connected devices. This means a stranger can have complete control over your cameras, lights, and door locks and to make matters worse some hackers are so good that users may not be aware that their network has even been compromised.

Then there is the risk of weak security and outdated software which is necessary to keep your devices secure. When your security isn't strong and updates aren't being installed it's like keeping the front door open. That's why it's important as a smart homeowner, to provide expert-level support to your home devices - which is where managed IT like Tekk Support comes in.

It takes a lot more than plugging in a few gadgets to mitigate the potential risks associated with operating smart home devices. Smart homes are only as secure as the network they run on, and IT management service providers such as Tekk Support specialize in ensuring that your home stays protected and efficient. As a smart homeowner, the system and security supporting your smart devices should be even smarter than the devices themselves.
