Of those, perhaps six to ten are traditional computing devices — laptops, phones, tablets — with current operating systems, automatic security updates, and vendors who issue patches. The rest are smart bulbs, thermostats, door locks, cameras, robot vacuums, speakers, appliances, and sensors. These devices run embedded software that may not have been updated since the day they shipped, respond to default credentials that have not been changed, and have attack surfaces that their manufacturers have not fully audited.
