Deloitte: Consumer Views of Connected Devices Are Changing

“More than 6 in 10 Gen Z respondents and over half of millennials expressed interest in learning, socializing and shopping through 3D platforms.” ...

Smart home devices have become indispensable and are often being used to help increase home security, according to Deloitte Vice Chair and U.S. Technology Sector Leader Paul Silverglate, who points out that:

  • Among consumers surveyed, 34 percent were victim to at least one kind of security breach in the past year, and 16 percent  experienced two or more.
  • Gen Zs were more than twice as likely as boomers to have their social media account hacked (17 percent vs. 8 percent) and three times more likely than baby boomers to fall for an online scam (16 percent vs. 5 percent).
  • Smart home devices that most owners consider essential all relate to home safety, including smart door locks, smart smoke detectors, security systems and doorbells with cameras.
