Smart home in the home through the Internet of things technology with the equipment (
Such as audio and video equipment, lighting, curtain control, air-conditioning control, security systems, digital cinema system, video server, shadow cabinet system, network appliances, etc. )
Together, we can create a more pleasant living environment for the user.
To this end, it also got the wide attention of the society, however, important thing three times, we may have overlooked one problem: security, safety and security.
actual test: smart home still pose a safety hazard
according to the enterprise security suppliers before going abroad for a period of time, according to a report released many of the 'Internet of things' lack the most basic security protection equipment, they can be hackers remotely, or even be used to eavesdrop on your talk in the bedroom.
is going, a researcher at the test, reverse the invasion of six common iot devices: intelligent housekeeper SmartThingsHub, WinkHub, WinkRelay, intelligent garage control Chamberlain 'sMyQGaragecontroller, Ubi InternetGateway and voice controller.
according to the report, by stealing the data on the Ubi, criminals can know when you're not at home.
Chamberlain security holes within the device can make the thief know is your garage door is close, and they can also be Garagecontroller for remote control.
WinkRelay and potential safety hazard in the Ubi can make cyber criminals open microphone, within the scope of the equipment to monitor eavesdropping on your conversation, triggering alleged extortion or leakage of trade secrets.

smart must be the premise of safety
in simple terms, intelligent household security hidden danger basically has two aspects: the first is their own safety equipment, the second is the data of information security.
The safety of the equipment itself is refers to the intelligent hardware after the breach, lose their original function directly, become a pile of 'rusty'.
Just think, if it is a smart door locks, if after being attacked by hackers what are the consequences of loss of function.
, by contrast, smart home become the breach of the hacker family data collect user information is more serious, the device once become hackers steal data tools, users lost will be more than just a family's privacy, even involve some password, may find it difficult to make up for the final loss.
so, we should pay more attention to intelligent household security problems.
