Precisely. Users need something as simple as Malwarebytes where they just need to click the big 'Scan' button and after a few minutes it will say "Your living room ceiling fan is running a potentially unwanted program (bitcoinminer), your freezer is infected with a virus, your garage door opener is participating in a botnet, and your fitbit has a rootkit. Click here to quarantine and disinfect everything. Click here to repeat this scan daily and notify you if anything new shows up."

End users would expect that such a thing should be simple. But of course it's not (would need to work with any device running any OS with any interface). First we would need some sort of standard protocol for it. But a standard protocol that lets an external agent determine what software is running on any device could potentially be dangerous...

This is not an easy problem.

You need a lot of data and a lot of current regularly updated information about websites being attacked or current known CnC servers. Also, there is a privacy aspect, so you can't send a lot of the data or even hashes of things to the cloud.

Such solutions might be more appropriate for workplaces in large companies and they already have things like SRX firewalls that have DDoS features.

I'm so tired of this.We live in a higly technical world and people should learn the basics. One of the reasons we are having this situation is because people don't understand their things.
