By 2020, the Internet of Things (IoT) will consist of millions of computational devices intimately connected to real-world aspects of human life. In this insightful book, Professor Sean Smith, who worked in information security long before the web appeared, explains that if we build the IoT the way we built the current internet and other information technology initiatives, we’re headed for trouble.
With a focus on concrete solutions, The Internet of Risky Things explains how we can avoid simple flaws that have plagued several dramatic IT advances in recent decades. Developers, engineers, industrial designers, makers, and researchers will explore "design patterns of insecurities" and learn what’s required to route around or fix them in the nascent IoT.
- Examine bugs that plague large-scale systems, including integer overflow, race conditions, and memory corruption
- Look at successful and disastrous examples of previous quantum leaps in health IT, the smart grid, and autonomous vehicles
- Explore patterns in coding, authentication, and cryptography that led to insecurity
- Learn how blunders that led to spectacular IT disasters could have been avoided

About the Author
In July 2000, Sean left IBM for Dartmouth, since he was convinced that the academic education and research environment is a better venue for changing the world. His current work, as PI of the Dartmouth Trust Lab and Director of Dartmouth's Institute for Security, Technology, and Society investigates how to build trustworthy systems in the real world.
At Dartmouth, many of his courses have been named "favorite classes" by graduating seniors. His book Trusted Computing Platforms: Design and Applications (Springer, 2005) provides a deeper presentation of this research journey; his book The Craft of System Security (Addison-Wesley, 2007) resulted from the educational journey.
Sean has published over one hundred refereed papers; been granted over a dozen patents; and advised over three dozen Ph.D., M.S., and senior honors theses. He and his students have won several "Best Paper" awards.
Sean was educated at Princeton and CMU, and is a member of Phi Beta Kappa and Sigma Xi.
