Earlier this year, Moor Insights & Strategy created a survey instrument intended to measure consumer perceptions about online security, privacy, and parental controls in the smart home. The survey instrument was created for Calix, a global provider of cloud and software platforms, systems, and services that deliver unified access networks and smart premises systems. Calix fielded the survey online and collected the survey data, which it shared with Moor Insights & Strategy. The purpose of the survey was to provide insight into these broad topics:
- The work habits of today’s smart home users
- The number (and types) of devices used in today’s smart home
- The average broadband speeds utilized in today’s smart home
- The factors inhibiting growth of smart home/IoT devices
- Consumer sensitivity about security, privacy, and parental controls
- Consumer trust in the typical sources of their security, privacy, and parental controlsolutions
- The price elasticity of generic security, privacy, and parental control solutions
