Home and industrial robots can be hacked to hurt humans
Published on Aug 22, 2017
"Home and factory robots can be hacked to harm humans"Last month, cybersecurity firm IOActive let everyone know that Segway MiniPro hoverboards were vulnerable to hacks and outside control via their Bluetooth connections. Now it has revealed that industrial robots from Universal Robots and consumer models from Softbank Group and UBTech Robotics also have some troubling security flaws that can allow hackers to "modify safety settings, violating applicable safety laws and, consequently, causing physical harm to the robot's surroundings by moving it arbitrarily," according to a report published by the company today.
Security vulnerabilities leave them open to reprogramming.

Alexa, Siri, Google Assistant, etc. can be hacked with voice commands
Published on Sep 6, 2017
"Alexa and Siri are vulnerable to 'silent,' nefarious commands"Ultrasonic frequencies can be used to visit hacking websites, unlock smart doors.
Hacks are often caused by our own stupidity, but you can blame tech companies for a new vulnerability. Researchers from China's Zheijiang University found a way to attack Siri, Alexa and other voice assistants by feeding them commands in ultrasonic frequencies. Those are too high for humans to hear, but they're perfectly audible to the microphones on your devices. With the technique, researchers could get the AI assistants to open malicious websites and even your door if you had a smart lock connected.
Unheard voices could direct your smartphone to malicious websites.
