The Internet of Things has been in the news recently following the DDOS attack on Dyn. It highlighted the security problems with IoT. But what is the problem? Let me explain.

  1. Business Opportunity in Ruvol

    I have invented a Board Game [still unpublished and not yet out in the market] that I believe is guaranteed to be as challenging and exciting as CHESS. I called it “RUVOL.”

    It is my hope that one day Ruvol may surpass chess as the “Number One Board Game in the World.”

    The weakness of chess is it always starts in fixed positions that the opening moves become “memorizable.” In fact, not a few have so mastered the moves that they can play against their opponents “blindfolded.” It is for this very reason that the great Bobby Fischer introduced his so-called “Fischer Random Chess,” where the starting position of the pieces is “randomized” to make the memorization of openings impracticable. Fortunately, it is also for this reason that I invented Ruvol where “every game” has been calculated to be a challenging one to play.

    HOW IS RUVOL PLAYED and HOW YOU CAN MONETIZE IT?

    I detailed everything in my YouTube video. Here is the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jcqth0m3-R0

    BIG MONEY POTENTIAL IN RUVOL!

    It is worthwhile to note that the people who play chess will be the same people who will play Ruvol. In my Google search, I learned there are around 800 million chess players in the world. Even just a small percentage of these 800 million is good enough to earn big money from Ruvol either as an ONLINE GAME BUSINESS or as a PHYSICAL PRODUCT DISTRIBUTOR.

    Thanks and God bless!

  3. Couldn't hear beyond the first 30 secs to 1 min – the background sound/music is annoying making it difficult to hear what he is saying…I guess it would be a very good video without the background music

  4. Any idea how to remove the background music? Can't continue due to the background noise distraction.

  12. If we have so many security vulnerabilities in devices designed to be somewhat secure such as smartphones and computers I can only imagine the security disaster that the IoT has brought to the table.

  16. I can't find a way to connect my fitbit to my microwave oven. Maybe I should throw another IoT thing in the middle.

  19. Everything needs to be overengineered to the scale of the Sega Saturn. It's the only way to be sure… By the time just the DRM's cracked, it would be 20 years since any of a type of device was ever used!

  21. Lol, and if all this oversimplified theoretical classroom bullshit is actually implemented the cost of IOT devices will increase by 500%. Smart.

  24. Last seconds of your video were very scary…! Im very convinced now !

    Wow the way you talk about things, the way you explain..

    Please bring more of these!

  28. We live in a progressive world. That means we need to keep up with the advancement in technology. But to me IOT is too dangerous. Its like inviting hackers right into my home. Big companies with sophisticated security measures are getting hacked, eg. Sony, Yahoo, a few banks in my country (India) like SBI and ICICI. A lot of IOT manufacturers can't hold a candle to the aforementioned companies in terms of security. I'm even afraid to think of the consequences. Privacy will become non-existent (it nearly is due to facebook, instagram etc). I would like to remain oldschool in certain aspects of life, i.e. stay a bit analog and mechanical in this digital world.

  32. That's a new one to me internet of things. People come up with the weirdest terminologies . Why not just say Networked Devices, see two words instead of three and sounds better…

  33. I agree with the points you made Gary but I think this can go one step further. IoT devices are usually inside Small Office/Home networks and are NATed through the gateway routers.
    I think it is also the responsibility of the manufacturers of these routers to incorporate a competent firewall into their boxes. These firewalls can be maintained by ISPs and the router manufacturers.
    This will give a double layer of security and also move the point of first defense farther away from the IoT devices inside the network. Further, the IoT devices can continue shrinking in size as the won't need extra security hardware in them.

  35. Very good explanation. I would add to that though, that IoT does not have the same security perception as 'regular' devices, meaning that where people have been drilled for over a decade to use antivirus, update software etc. a fridge or toaster does not seem like it's in the same class. Why should I update my toaster? I think much more needs to be done on the awareness side also.

  42. ABSOLUTELY NO WAY for the first point in that list to work. I don't need to explain you how difficult it would be to provision such routers (unique passwords). It would take a massive amount of work if you have to provision like 5000-6000-7000 of them today. It would be plain impossible. I'd rather have two factor authentication than that.
