i old see all the internet all things is a network of devices that can communicate by a built in mini computers for example has integrated senses that monitor and regulate room temperature that can safe 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 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 it. talking clock. the internet of things has a lot more to offer from time sensors that measure air quality 2 can share in networks 2 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. 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 and 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 life has to be able to communicate with the cloud. and. the industry can assist smart devices to make life easier like with autonomy and.

let it. run on their own and automatically adjust the room temperature is soon as everyone is 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 software built into their devices. says to the data collected and in the worst case who can remotely control the smart device these are the largest concerns of the t.s.a. 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. 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 this network provides or would like to see even more technology online at home my 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 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

the number of cyber attacks on iraqi devices is on the rise in the 1st half of 21000 there were more than 2900000000 hacking attempts 3 times more than last year one hacker showed us how simple hacking and be. launches to your floor. also spy on you. 3 hackers commandeered the device gaining access was pretty straightforward. by this manufacture i connected through one data. control that's made it. a slight change to 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 of devices vulnerable. i can start. with and then i

can look which device is there is in my network and then start to move to do. so it's like it's related to. 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 hackers get into one device they have access to all other 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 idea with bold names riot. well riot is meant to be the new global operating system for the internet of things we provide the apps 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. always be aware of which apps you're using and 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. much as delish 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 tailor 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 smoothly there's not just 3 or 4 platforms to consider but there's thousands ideally you want your software to run on all of them. riot focuses on small processors with low storage capacity and performance and minimal mostly battery powered energy consumption there's 2 reasons why much he has 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 in. 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. devices work together smoothly and that's how i would want my smart home to be but reality is a bit dim. 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 have 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 join the discussion for example shia buy and see them.
