Abstract

An apparatus for detecting fraudulent activity includes a device property data processing circuit, a security analysis circuit, an alert circuit, and an alert provisioning circuit. The device property data processing circuit is structured to interpret device property data corresponding to a device registered with an Internet of Things (IoT) device registry. The security analysis circuit is structured to determine, based at least in part on the device property data, that the device is subject to a fraud event. The alert circuit is structured to generate, responsive to the determined fraud event, a message that identifies the device. The alert provisioning circuit is structured to transmit the message.
