Internet of Things devices from the likes of Apple, Fitbit and Samsung will be pushed to their limits this August at the DefCon 23 conference, where hackers have been invited to test the latest gadgets for possible exploits, reports The Register.
Taking place in Las Vegas, DefCon is the largest convention for hackers in the United States, and this year’s ‘Internet of Things village’ will give manufacturers the chance to weed out security flaws ahead of their upcoming product launches. Devices that will be tested at this year’s conference include the Apple Time Capsule network storage device, the Fitbit Aria scale and a Samsung Smart Cam IP Baby Monitor.
