It is determined that the current utilization attributes do not equal a threshold value associated with the recommended utilization attributes and optimal utilization attributes for replacing the IOT device are determined. A network based search for locating a replacement IOT device is executed and associated results are presented to a user. A resulting process for securing the replacement device is executed.
