More than 83 million smart devices at risk

Hackers could access more than 83 million smart devices, including baby monitors, thanks to a critical vulnerability. The US Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency warned that hackers could listen to and watch live audio and video feeds. Evidence so far suggests the vulnerability affects both default and non-default passwords. The problem has been linked to a software protocol called Kalay, run by ThroughTek. The company advised consumers to update their software.
