/archive/j/site/logos/zigbee.pngWith Smart Meters, Hybrid Electric car chargers and home automation installs becoming more dependent on ZigBee, it was only a matter of time before people try to find exploits in this technology. Earlier this month, a video was posted showing off how one might attempt to compromise a ZigBee based network.
