I started taking a deep-dive look at iOS HomeKit, and was alarmed at the security implications that would be on my shoulders.
I'm not an embedded engineer type, so the security burden I saw being hefted upon my shoulders felt much more onerous than the typical REST type API I've been accustomed to.
At this point, I cannot imagine writing an app using IoT while at the same time feeling confident in understanding every bad security use-case.
Perhaps `IoT Security Expert` is an up-and-coming career path, but it's not a job description for the faint of heart nor for the one-off developer to be able to approach with any sense of confidence.
