living in the digital age and don't forget you can get all the latest news around the clock on our website that's on d.w. dot com and as always we will be back with more headlines and all the news in 45 minutes. and i you don't need to see couple of there you go to the google old photo over the mets and home the fortune for the most missing without a clue about. the bottom of the fannies at the last dragon those words called the home. depot we were on. i was here when i arrived here i slept with 6 people in a room for june 9th and. it was hard i was fair. i even got white hair and.

the language never got this gets me and they go but you need to interact with something you want to know their story like that's her fighting in for a little information for migrants. fridges that know was at the door talking losses and robust that mow the lawn on their own smart devices are meant to make our lives easier but they also gathering all private data the internet of things the smart but how secure is it i want topics today on shift. i old see all the internet all things is a network of devices that can communicate by a built in mini computer smart heat of for example has integrated sensors. that

money to and regulate room temperature that can save heating costs of vacuum cleaners that operate independently can save us time boys or systems always have an open it for us and can even tell other devices what we want by the way what do you think alexa is used most for they've limp head of amazon hardware has some interesting news customers ask echo over a 1000000000 times a year. this alexa what time is. the talking clock. the internet of things has a lot more to offer from time sensors that measure air quality to cancerian networks to surveillance systems for industrial plants a recent study expects that over 50000000000 devices and sensors will be connected by 2022 professor very loose from the fire when he visited specializes in the internet of things. the professor. has been studying. the internet of

things for over 10 years and. he's fascinated by the idea of making everyday objects smart. consider the light bulb you can control it with a switch on the wall or you could use your phone. you might want to add features like making a light flash when a storm warning is issued. but then your light needs to be able to receive that information from the web it's not stored locally. so your light has to be able to communicate with the cloud. industry conason smart devices will make life easier like with autonomy. that run on their own heaters that automatically adjust the room temperature is soon as everyone has left the house. a smart bridge that monitors which groceries

are running out can be very inconvenient imagine being out of butter and then the doorbell rings with a fresh delivery of more butter but this also lets companies analyze which products you consume. the data collected in transmitted is mostly invisible to ordinary users the same goes for the stuff where built into their device. says to the data collected and in the worst case who can remotely control the smart device these are the largest concerns mathias really has with this new technology. right now the biggest challenge the internet of things faces is security and privacy imagine someone with access to your stove they could cause it to overheat and maybe even start a fire in your home. or someone with control over a power plant could cut the power to an entire city.
12:20 pm
the possibilities seem endless but the risks involved are not to be taken lightly users should think twice about how much smarter acknowledges they want in their homes families is not too worried they enjoy the convenience and futuristic fear this network provides or would like to see even more technology online at home my in wouldn't i want my house to be able to tell when i get out of bed when i come downstairs i want my favorite radio station to start playing my favorite coffee brewing and if it's cold outside of my car to automatically start heating up often it. can already remotely control who has access to his home he has a smart door his children don't need a key to get in they simply scan their fingerprints. i can see if my kids are home from this camera has facial recognition.

it's. remotely. the voice assistant. shopping list. and. very interesting.

they all had to confess to. these digital. times pick up on things. human constantly checking. to understand. now people using this technology. it's become. so. i default my

privacy being the default setting people who don't mind their actions being recorded to improve their experience can still change their settings where they use a smart technology at home should really know what they're dealing with security expert martin shuttle believes smart technology required smart handling the money found for if you're responsible for a household full of smart devices then you've basically become a system administrator like the ones that many choose data centers by now and that means you need to treat your home like one catalog in the devices you are installing security patches checking for software updates changing passwords and perhaps even setting up protocols like to make sure there were no hacking attempts to invention and principals who got a good point security analysts say the number of cyber attacks on i had 2 devices is on the rise in the 1st half of 21000 there were more than $2900000000.00 hacking
12:24 pm
attempts that's 3 times more than last year one hacker showed us how simple hacking can be. launches to your floor. also spy on you. 3 hackers have commandeered the device gaining access was pretty straightforward. by this manufacture i connected through one data cloud with. a slight change the source code was all it took to access the controls in camera. the vacuum cleaner receives its commands through a built in microcontroller connected to the internet. security make the entire network devices vulnerable. i can start. with a. look which device is there. so it's
12:25 pm
a related. but. the problem is just one device can compromise the entire system no matter if it's a home or industrial network as soon as get into one device they have access to all unsecured devices on the network and they can reprogram those devices to launch new attacks that makes it all the more important to understand the technology behind the internet of things but recommends open source solutions they don't rely on just one manufacturer for security or data protection. with bold names riot. is meant to be the new global operating system for the internet of things we provide the uses need for that. if you're interested in the internet of things and want to make your devices smart then it's important to use open source solutions that aren't bound to a specific manufacturer. and always be aware of which apps you're using and
12:26 pm
what private data they require. one possible solution is the operating system ryan developed a 3 year appeal in universities the great source code is openly accessible so anyone can check it and modify it to their own needs but that won't let users program their own devices yet they need other apps to do that. as they wish once to offer these apps on grab store and app store for the internet of things currently it's still being tested but in the future it will let users download all kinds of apps for their smart devices so they can individually tailor their devices features. for the internet of things operates across a lot of different devices so it's not easy to make sure the software always runs smoothly there's not just 3 or 4 platforms to consider there's thousands ideally
12:27 pm
you want your software to run on all of them or for present. riot focuses on small processors with low storage capacity and performance and minimal mostly battery power and energy consumption there's 2 reasons why my ts vanished prefers these kinds of applications. that will 1st of all every object requires a visible space that you might not always have. secondly each additional component costs extra when you manufacture small scale devices you can't use too much space and you need to be cost effective. the industry is also very interested in open source io t. technology one car manufacturer is currently testing digital keys that run with the riaa operating system smarts and say. one main software that keeps my network safe and makes sure my o.t.
12:28 pm
devices work together smoothly and that's how i would want my smart home to be a reality is a big deal. friend manufacturers are reluctant to hand over their software and aside from that i think i.o.t. devices should offer more than just convenience they should promote sustainability a smart thermostat that helps save energy great smart feed of a mad dog no thanks otherwise the end of things becomes the internet of jack what's your opinion how smart do you want your data data be under discussion for example shia buy and see their room.

likes in 30 years up to the full the full moon. everything seems possible here. 1900. 90 is where the peaceful revolution began. today it's a creative and frightening the traumas. so suggest the right time for a trip into the city's past and present. on. earth home to millions of species of home worth saving. see as much as those are big changes and most start with small steps global ideas tell stories of creative people and innovative projects around the world like to use the term the climate used to green energy solutions and reforestation. they
