By 2020, the Internet of Things (IoT) will consist of millions of computational devices intimately connected to real-world aspects of human life. This insightful book demonstrates that if we build the IoT the way we built the current internet and other information technology initiatives, we're headed for trouble.
By 2020, the Internet of Things (IoT) will consist of millions of computational devices intimately connected to real-world aspects of human life. In this insightful book, Professor Sean Smith, who worked in information security long before the web appeared, explains that if we build the IoT the way we built the current internet and other information technology initiatives, we’re headed for trouble.
With a focus on concrete solutions, The Internet of Risky Things explains how we can avoid simple flaws that have plagued several dramatic IT advances in recent decades. Developers, engineers, industrial designers, makers, and researchers will explore "design patterns of insecurities" and learn what’s required to route around or fix them in the nascent IoT.

- Examine bugs that plague large-scale systems, including integer overflow, race conditions, and memory corruption
- Look at successful and disastrous examples of previous quantum leaps in health IT, the smart grid, and autonomous vehicles
- Explore patterns in coding, authentication, and cryptography that led to insecurity
- Learn how blunders that led to spectacular IT disasters could have been avoided
Professor Sean Smith has been working in information security since before there was a Web. He has worked with the US Postal Inspection Service on postal meter fraud; at Los Alamos National Laboratory, he performed security reviews, designs, analyses, and briefings; at IBM T.J. Watson Research Center, he designed the security architecture for (and helped code and test) the IBM 4758 secure coprocessor. In July 2000, Sean left IBM for Dartmouth, since he was convinced that the academic education and research environment is a better venue for changing the world. His current work investigates how to build trustworthy systems in the real world.
