Abstract
The concepts and technologies disclosed herein are directed to home gateway monitoring for vulnerable home Internet of Things ('IoT') devices. According to one aspect disclosed herein, a home gateway can scan a home network address space of a home network for an IoT device. The home gateway can perform a vulnerability test on the IoT device to determine whether the IoT device is vulnerable to a known vulnerability. In response to determining that the IoT device is vulnerable to the known vulnerability, the home gateway can change a device status of the IoT device to a vulnerable status and can change a permissions level of the IoT device to a quarantine permissions level.
