How Do You Think About Smart Home and Security?
Recently there were some articles discussed safety issue related to smart home. Some even provided examples of situations where “computer experts” can break into our smart homes via the internet and take over control over basic functions. Now, a hacker flushing your toilet maybe a nuisance, but unlocking the front door to let uninvited guests in may be really nasty. So, clearly some work to be done as a lack of security would be really a showstopper for rolling out the smart home.
The good news for ZigBee is that in articles and their examples there was no mention of any ZigBee compromised system. ZigBee has many methods for making sure that the network is kept secure. It has 128-bit AES link encryption, making it virtually impossible to casually listen in to any exchange. It also uses encrypted key exchange for commissioning of new devices and frame counters to avoid replaying of messages (“to open the door again”). ZigBee has learned a lot from WiFi and probably the best news is that the ZigBee Alliance has a system in place to stay alert to emerging issues and to address new and “out of the box” ways to compromise security of a smart home system.
Wulian smart home, as an advanced ZigBee Alliance and the Headquarter of ZigBee Alliance China, thinks ultimate security does not exist, and only when technologists and marketers work together closely to keep exploring new solutions can smart home achieves security without compromising users experience. Wulian smart home considers today’s ZigBee as a relatively secure networking method, but it doesn’t think there is nothing to improve. In wulian smart home product system, solutions for future potential problems have been prepared in advance.
Today the smart homes is a set of more or less independent applications, whether for consumer electronics, security, energy management, lighting or home care. Product developers in the different application spaces are developing products independently and these products have a large variety of user interfaces and security solutions. Over time the security protocols for these networks will start to converge and standardize. Wulian smart home has this great vision for the industry and thus participate actively in standard developing and establishing.
