I would love it, but it looks like it will take time.
As for security, we've been building PCs and such for decades and still are just beginning to get it right. Looks like one really needs a TPM chip as in Chromebook or iPhone. That may be too expensive for many devices, hell, it is apparently too expensive for most desktops, laptops etc.
As for sending data.
Seems like an IOT vendor would hope to sell the usage data. That does seem to have some value.
- bigiain 10y agoRaspberry Pi's SOC has had ARM TrustZone support right from the beginning (I'm pretty sure, definitely in recent models). I don't know if we can rely on crypto secure unique keys having been burned at some stage inside every Pi (Not sure if that'd be done by Broadcom or 'Pi?), but the "too expensive" argument seems unsound... (I fully expect to read soon about some Chinese manufactured IoT device where every single one if millions manufactured has an identical MAC, GUID, and TrustZone private key...) http://hackerboards.com/trustzone-tee-tech-ported-to-raspberry-pi-3/ http://hackerboards.com/trustzone-tee-tech-ported-to-raspber...
- carterehsmith 10y agoIIRC ARM TrustZone is not a TMP chip, just some software. And the other day we read that people managed to break it, possibly affecting many Android devices.
