This swift change in tone is due largely to a recently released whitepaper from IoT research firm Parks Associates, titled "Residential Security and Encryption: Setting the Standard, Protecting Consumers."

Parks Associates also found that the majority of homeowners assume security integrators are addressing their cybersecurity concerns.
