The Internet of Things: The Good, The Bad, And Everything In Between

I my self have for a while been skeptical on the future of  Internet of thing,
at the moment there is to little done for the security on those devices.
One of the scary things i can see happing in the future is, lets say some black-hat or crime gang want to bring down amazons cloud severs or the shopping site.
Well then they hack a navigation system or the general OS of a car firm, like future ww wagons or that kind.
result moving ip addresses that can initiate a BIG Ddos attack.
And as far as a know of dos migration tactics that scenario is properly be a nightmare.

well well welll

Been talking some some people the last couple of days. And must say i am surprised on how low just normal security measures is on peoples mind, things like keeping windows updated and automatic updates on the virus scanner
In my opinion.
all ways keep you virus scanner up to date , and maybe buy a pro version of it
all ways keep windows/gnu-linux/osx up to date that is some very basic things that can keep some script kiddies out of your system.
Some good new on the fight on warez
