At a manufacturing facility, the security team for an IoT$-$based system implemented various efforts to monitor and control multiple processes using embedded systems.

The security team employed real$-$time operating systems $($RTOS$)$ to ensure precise and timely data processing. The security team recognized the importance of safeguarding these IoT devices and embedded systems against potential cyber threats.

The team plans to implement security BEST practices and protocols.

How would the security team explain why they want to implement security best practices and protocols in the manufacturing facility's IoT devices and embedded systems?
