Our homes are becoming smarter. Lights you can switch on remotely, heating that learns about when you will be at home, refrigerators that add items to shopping list as you use them and electric cars that charge when fuel prices are low.
This exciting new world does not come without risks: risks to privacy; risks to security and risks to physical safety. Continue reading “Cyber Essentials At Home”
The automotive world is transforming.
According to “How the Internet of Things is transforming the automotive industry” here’s a look at what to expect in the immediate future:
This new section of the this blog describes a project which is a collaboration between Nexor , the School of Computer Science and the Academic Unit of Clinical Oncology at the University of Nottingham. This project aims to produce the next generation of cyber defence tools based on gaining an enhanced understanding of the human immune system. This work has been kindly funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (“the EPSRC”).
