I'M A HUGE fan of the connected world. I've commented previously on the many potential benefits for communities everywhere. Like many good things, however, it poses its own set of challenges. One of these is the "democratization" of cyber-crime. The spread of the IoT means we are all vulnerable in our connected homes, our connected cars, or when enjoying the efficiencies of connected infrastructures and smart services. The potential consequences of cyber-attacks are no longer an issue only for banks, governments or large corporations. The consequences of a hacked car or medical device can be personal, realtime, and in some instances life-threatening.
