Securing Embedded Linux
Until fairly recently, Linux developers have been spared many of the security threats that have bedeviled the Windows world. Yet, when moving from desktops and servers to the embedded Internet of Things, a much higher threat level awaits.
“The basic rules for Linux security are the same whether it’s desktop, server, or embedded, but because IoT devices are typically on all the time, they pose some unique challenges,” said Mike Anderson, CTO and Chief Scientist for The PTR Group, Inc. during an Embedded Linux Conference talk called “Securing Embedded Linux.”

Everyone has been hacked
Unless you live in a cave (if you do, I'm pretty jealous) you've heard about all the political hacking going on. I don't like to take sides, so let's put aside who is right or wrong and use it as a lesson in thinking about how we have to operate in what is the new world.
In the past, there were ways to communicate that one could be relatively certain was secure and/or private. Long ago you didn't write everything down. There was a lot of verbal communication. When things were written down there was generally only one copy. Making copies of things was hard. Recording communications was hard. Even viewing or hearing many of these conversations if you weren't supposed to was hard. None of this is true anymore, it hasn't been true for a long time, yet we still act like what we do is just fine.
