In essence, yep. The tech behind IoT is basic enough that it is widely valuable--especially because it is not solely for IoT; instead, IoT is a side-effect of those technologies.
I would be curious how you think that open source will make PIoT any less risky or a compromise any less dangerous.
- IgorPartola 13y agoThe compromise would be very dangerous. It's something to design against. Using vetted OSS software, running atop open hardware, and being able to verify that neither has been tempered with is the way to do it. If I decide to run an IoT based on some very basic microcontrollers + bluetooth adapters + a Cubieboard, running OSS software I verified myself, behind a firewall I set up myself, I'd give it a decent amount of trust (all of the above are examples and of course can be swapped for parts that we can give more trust).
