Abstract
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. A second image is obtained that is not infected from the IoT service. The device is reloaded with the second image to replace the first image with the second image.
