don't tell me that there's you never vote. for him and the joint you come off in the morning. refuel the sins of news of your highness. the problems. starts oct 11th on to tell you enough. fridges that know who's 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 our 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 via built in mini computers for example has integrated senses that monitor and regulate room temperature that can save

heating costs of vacuum cleaners that operate independently can save us time boys assistance 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 cars networks to surveillance systems for industrial plants a recent study expects that over 50000000000 devices and sensors will be connected by 2022 professor from the visited specializes in the internet of things. professor much has been studying. the internet of things

for over 10 years and. is fascinated by the 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. since. they're run on their own heaters that automatically adjust the room temperature as soon as everyone is left the house. a smart fridge 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 stock where built into their devices. says to the data collected and in the case who can remotely control the smart device these are the largest concerns. as 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.
2:19 am
the possibilities seem endless but the risks involved and not to be taken lightly users should think twice about how much small technology they want in their homes families is not too worried they enjoy the convenience and futuristic fear the smog network provides or would like to see even more technology online at home. 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 the favorite coffee to be brewing out of it's cold outside my car to automatically start heating up and 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 them this camera has facial recognition.
2:20 am
it's. the voice. shopping list. services. very interesting.
2:21 am
they all had to confess to analyzing. how the conversations were. these digital health always on. pick up on. constantly checking in. to keep it up to. understand. now people using this technology. now it's become a. privacy
2:22 am
by. 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 small technology required smart handling the money fan photo 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 for via acknowledge that means you need to treat your home like one catalog in the devices you're 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 inflation and clings for who got a good point security analysts say the number of cyber attacks and i had to devices is on the rise and the 1st half of 21000 there were more than 2 point
2:23 am
$9000000000.00 hacking attempts that's 3 times more than last year one hacker showed us how simple hacking can be. spy on you. 3 have commandeered the device gaining access was pretty straightforward. by this manufacture i connected. 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 gaps make the entire network devices vulnerable. i can start. with and then i can look which device is there. so it's like it's related.
2:24 am
but there is no limit 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 secure 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 idea with bold names riot. but riot is meant to be the new global operating system for the internet of things we provide the users 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
2:25 am
what private data they require. one possible solution is the operating system ryan developed a 3 year appeal in universities the right 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. yes danish wants to offer these apps on graph 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 tailored their devices features. the internet of things operates across a lot of different devices so it's not easy to make sure the software always runs
2:26 am
smoothly there's not just 3 or 4 platforms to consider but there's thousands and ideally you want your software to run on all of them. using. 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. you know about that well 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 riot operating system smarts and say. one main software that keeps my network safe and makes sure my o.t.
2:27 am
devices work together smoothly and that's how i would want my smartphone to be a reality is a big deal. friend manufacturers are reluctant to hand over their software and aside from that i think i owe t.d. vies this should offer more than just convenience they should promote sustainability a smart thermostat that helps save energy great feat 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 to under discussion for example here buy and see if their room.
