Just one suggestion, can you offer information on device security also? A collection of devices may work well together, but if I was buying a smart home device I'd want to be informed of any security issues as they're discovered. The escalations in DDoS size that we saw in 2016 were supposedly driven by a high number of insecure smart home/IoT devices, I'd like to do what I can to stop this becoming a trend.
- jeffclark 10y agoThat's a great idea. Do you have any devices in your house, yet?
- ZenoArrow 10y agoThank you. Any IoT devices? Not yet.

- ZenoArrow 10y ago>"Primarily driven by home routers, not IoT devices." It's IoT devices too. Here's an example of an IoT device with subpar security discovered in the past couple of days: http://hackaday.com/2017/01/02/owl-insecure-internet-of-energy-monitors/ http://hackaday.com/2017/01/02/owl-insecure-internet-of-ener...
