Public Key Infrastructure could Emerge as De Facto Credential for IoT Devices
You can’t just walk into a secure building and start tampering with the air conditioning or access control systems without proper authorization, such as a pre-registered ID from a trusted company. On the cyber-side of our smart buildings, however, security failings mean that hackers can virtually stroll into the building and access whichever system they […]
WeWork Sells Office Space, We Company Sells an Entrepreneurial Culture
