Have you ever thought about where our data is hosted and analyzed?Probably not, because of the high connection speed, our information can make a trip around the world in less than a second through the cloud computing structure.Have you ever thought about: while our data is traveling on the internet, our agenda, smart locker pin or allarm settings can be intercepted, edited, deleted or published online? What if the cloud crashes or is unexpectedly serviced?Remember a few years ago when a famous thermostat brand had a glitch that caused the house to stop heating? Or when a famous virtual assistant crashed and customers were no longer able to interact with their smart home via voice?The cloud should be treated as an extension of your smart home, rather than controlling it.In this book, we will discuss the most important points to make your home: smarter reliable and most importantly secure alike
