1. A security system for enhancing security of a device utilizing a communication channel, the security system comprising:
one or more processors; and
a storage including instructions stored thereon that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the security system to:
receive, by a plurality of Internet of Thing (IoT) devices, data from a communication source through a first communication channel;
replicate, by the plurality of IoT devices, the received data;
randomly activate one of non-empty subsets of the plurality of IoT devices;
select a majority vote input based on the replicated data from the randomly activated subset of the plurality of IoT devices; and
transmit the majority vote input to a communication destination through a second communication channel, which is different from the first communication channel.
