Zusammenfassung:Provided are techniques for mitigating security risks utilizing continuous device image reload with data integrity. Continuous reload of a first image on a device in an Internet of Things (IoT) group of devices coupled to an IoT service is performed based on triggers. A trigger from the triggers is received that indicates one of that a period of time has expired, that notification of a known infection has been received, and that there has been failure of an internal onboard security check.
