Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, implementing and using techniques for enhancing the security of Internet of Things (IoT) devices. A homogenous and leaderless group of IoT devices sharing one or more common features is defined. During operation of the IoT devices, it is identified whether an IoT device in the group operates outside an expected tolerance for the operation of the IoT devices in the group. In response to identifying that an IoT device in the group operates outside an expected tolerance, an action is performed on the IoT device.
