Our cell phones have microphones, cameras and are connected to the internet – that’s clear. But the fridge? Our lightbulbs? Or the washing machine?
Even they can increasingly transmit to the web, can be controlled via smartphone or are equipped with eyes and ears.

But: Any device that is online can become the target of a hacker attack and reveal its valuable data. BILDplus clarifies how great the danger really is.
