Your (not so) smart TV is currently busy with taking down the Internet

By Achim D. Brucker.

More and more devices of our daily life are ``smart:” ranging from smart light bulbs to smart TVs to smart fridges – everything can, and most likely will be, in the future connected to the Internet. More and more people are already used to remotely controlling their heating at home using their smart phone. In this talk, we will explain the technology behind the ``smart things” and discuss the how your smart thermostat and your neighbour’s TV might be hijacked to take down the Internet.
