very much, okay. next up is shift our show about all things digital. this time with a look at the realty of smart home are launching the, the news line from berlin. i will be back at the top of the hour with some more headlines in the meantime. remember, you can get all the latest from around the world. i know what the w dot com the news d w is crime sliders are back africa the most successful radio drama theories continues. all episodes are available online. course you can share and this goes on the w africa, facebook page and other social media platforms. crime fighters tune in now how does the virus spread? why didn't panic by? and when will all of this 3 of the topics that we covered and i weekly radio.

if you would like any more information on the kroner virus or any other find topics you should really check out our podcast. you can get it wherever you get your podcasts. you can also find us at w dot com, forward slash science. let me shift special smart home, how risky or intelligent how's me, who has had the mind of its own expert castro, high diary configured a 300 smart programs in his family. artificial intelligence in the basement. this has always knows what's up. i got a home and southern jeremy looks normal and looks can be deceiving. morning regina please be quiet area it's nice recognizes faces clear

to enter the home and opens the door off of nathan to computer. where is papa? i was at work, but left at 4 55 pm, the phone, given the current traffic, like maybe home at 6 50 pm. when the hydra is wanted to know whether they should buy new diapers for their daughter radia, they just ask, and we need diapers. my, according to my calculations already has around $3594.00 plus diapers last 2 days. i would order more on monday, but inside 5, should i order these now? yes, please. okay, i'll search for the best price and order, then they'll likely arrive tomorrow. when the family watches tv smart sensors dark and the room blinds, don't check the smart home, noticed that after 6 or 7 times it new when they want it this way,

hold on. i english to see and i was so that every time we turn on the tv and there's too much sunlight, lower supplying upon the blind, adjust according to the angle of the sun. and the tv moves with contra high daddy, booking in the system, uses sensors, microphones, and cameras, registers everything the found, the shopping sharing cooking and bird cabin, 50 devices are connected, including the tv oven, heating system license lines. they communicate with one another and 20 online services such as amazon or google, or use him on the command center, so to speak. the houses. this is the heart of the whole thing on a small computer with the consumes relatively little power. it operates the i of runs a lot of software hoping the fighter is, my son really helps like this is firstly hoping management a secondly, i mainly do it for energy efficiency. systems have so much power and reduces the

ecological prince and the one i should be covering my investment to the 15 to 20 years. on the side, the res flower beds are also watch it, according to weather data recommendation. the law more functions in a similar way. even a test when the family barbecues on the terrace. the stakes are ready fun. my vision is that in a few years, the house will new when i'm hungry was i want to get an order from the delivery service madison magically. i will do nothing when i open the door except for food. but how much and data storage is too much, even if it's wanted to. hi, terri amelia with much concern, but don't share the nature of their home and getting all the time. a smart home can make life more comfortable an optimized process. but it can also pose

a security risk by experts at this university show us how simple it is hack software for a typical home security camera that connects the why fi at the university of applied sciences near northern germany. i course of, at the research system specialized in cybersecurity. he's going to hack into the camera crunch. that's looking good with yes i'm in. there we are using was course. okay. why did i security vulnerability? because the cameras default settings allowed to be accessed via the internet, the specialist was able to hack his way in within minutes, using a program. he wrote himself what's terrified? it's not just how fast he didn't pull him aside, the invasion of privacy. the camera opens a gateway into the whole network, meaning hackers could spy on every connected device.

it applies not only to this camera but essentially to any number of cameras if i you, because the firmware on it, the operating system is used not just for this one, but also by many other camera makers. some of the actual problems i think you're probably in this chink in the armor is functional as it needs to devices that compatible goes to that says manufacturers to provide security aspects and pay to little attention to firmware settings. the problem is that the problem is that many manufacturers don't even know there's a problem because they just purchased the firmware. so they probably don't know their way around it or how to secure it. the last is a cost factor. at 20 you a camera isn't going to have a whole lot of security built in this app control door lock made by a leading german brand. the students expected it to be more secure, but they nonetheless managed to hack into its wireless technology. the

phone that communicates with a base station that in turn transmit signals to the door lock. hackers could interfere with the base station and bombarded effectively, putting it out of action, which would leave the door unlocked. professor patrick baker has worked for germany's intelligence, but he says, you don't need to be a secret agent or an expert to carry out such attack. scary, incredibly easy to maintain, that you can find each venue. many of the tools we should be doing. you can launch these attacks of, even if you haven't got a clue what you're doing was much easier is the police therefore emphasize prevention and advise people to properly inform themselves about security risks. so that smart has technology, doesn't open the door, attend today's country, like if like, if someone has surveillance cameras, they could observe them at home and you know,

it's in the hall of the they can watch when people come and go up and go and more or less compile a profile of their daily routines. fucking students at the university of applied sciences and in layer on germany's noisy coast use exercises like these to prepare themselves for careers and cybersecurity making product, the better and more secure and above all funny. but educating students. so the companies where they end up working become sensitized for these things and make sure they don't happen the university and for the manufacturers about the vulnerabilities found in the devices. the students hacked. a few months later, the files were fixed. when he sent us a new devices and we attempted the breaches we showed you again and they no longer work. nick shanda seems this is the only way you can reach some of the manufacturers and get them to take action. the i teach him to remain ever on the

alert searching for and exposing new found repellant cheese. so what can we do to improve the security of protect our privacy? 3 young researchers looked at digital washed august part of their master's degrees, which uses machine learning to recognize reports and ward off cyber attack. me this little device to make why fi network safer? it was designed by better way. students start from israel in germany is the idea was born by the fact that we're surrounded every day by problematic, smart home devices, like cameras and vacuum cleaners, hoping to have a microphone or a camera and process. personal information are strikingly vulnerable to hackers. if you had to check on the system, so after 3 semester, the study, the team developed its 1st prototype, which people can hook up to their rotors at home to help in we call it watch dog.

nothing's because it's a device that watches over and protects all the devices in your house health when the actual and informs you. when something's wrong, when it was the internet of things is becoming part of our everyday lives. the number of intelligent advice in households is rising, and we are always online. all these devices rely on our homes, private router. so that's precisely where bit away places to watch. if there's an attack on the smart home, the user received a notification on their smartphone and can and the unauthorized access at the touch button. the, the monday out watch dog is in the watch, don't use in otherwise, it learns how these devices normally function the machine with the help of machine learning and then determines whether a device is operating normally or purely quiet is no model or when

a threat occurs and it can look at all kinds of our lucky and along with private household or industrial applications, i never received half a 1000000 euros and funding from japanese ministry of education and research. they develop, watched on here at the tech center for information security. and it was professor taylor who taught them how to turn in idea and to market ready products. and it said that the end of each semester, students present their project in its current form to a jury, a bit like on dragons. then they have to keep defending their idea time and again and explain how it will make money over the course of a year and a half. so 3 semesters, it grows more polished before it starts off. it's just a little technical idea. well then it becomes a prototype which is perfected more and more into at the end of these one and a half years, they actually have something that can be shown to potential investors who can back

the start up of the longer term of i to understood this master's degree program is the only one of his kind in germany test by c o me. but it's important to turn research into practice. and therefore in research, you can either build a fantastic engine that you keep somewhere to admire or you can put it in a car to drive on the street. honda and we want to drive to help them turn their ideas into successful products. students in the entrepreneurial cybersecurity master's degree program i taught to think like start to founders. they spend half of their time attending classes on it. and stiver security. the rest of the time as opposed to learning about product development and how you found a business with the program, it's attracting more and more students use me. we started off with 70 or 80 applicants. now we have over $120.00. they come from the saw land and everywhere

in germany, from europe or north america, down to america, india, and pakistan from all over the world. and also considered little i wanted their just to watch, talk to be as user friendly as possible. so they made a controllable bias, smartphone to miss, and didn't need 1st sit down at the desk and turn on your computer. today, people always have their smartphones. so when something happens, when you get a notification on your phone and during the current test phase early users get to try out the prototype for the wash dock to come out onto the market. alexander, think home on top of your life and their team 1st need to find financial backers who buy into their idea. ah, the

focus on education can northern ideally gets more children into a concert. we discussed the issue, what schools offer please call the school. and we ask teams about their anderson 77 percent. you know from the dr. is very tokyo with 780 p. no, just the fees for the number. 80 marashi. and then i and the we'll see, customize the cars in his garage because sometimes you might have something me quite wonderful. read the 60 minute d, w. me in the change africa mega.

what's in store with here? what i have for the future, w dot com for can megacity, holding your insight, clicks and answer the me hello and welcome to another edition of the 77 percent. this is the show for africa, so you'd like you and i wherever you're watching from your host, eddie mike, a junior so this will show will focus on education. how do you get students and children in school? yes. what's coming up.
