Engineer a [secure] Connected World The Internet of Things security debate is on. By 2020 up to 20 billion devices could be connected to the Internet. We are entering a world in which wirelessly connected devices can make decisions based on your personal data. But, a new study shows 70 percent of IoT Home Devices are vulnerable to attack. Join the conversation and take our poll Did the FTC Go Far Enough? Or read our Engineering a Connected World study to learn what connected devices consumers want to use in the future. This month on element14   New Pi 2 Projects andDesign Challengers   Infineon Arduino IoT Bundle RoadTest   Altium CircuitStudio – A First Look Get started with the Raspberry Pi 2 Camera. Read how Les Pounder makes 3 new projectswith a camera, a Pi 2, and other components.
