Could switching smart meter readings to every half hour put your home at risk of being BURGLED? That’s the warning from cyber experts – but suppliers insist devices are safe
Anyone who has installed a ‘smart’ meter to keep a regular eye on their consumption of electricity and gas is being warned the device could increasingly become a target for hackers………
“Trade body Smart Energy GB insists the smart metering system in the UK has been ‘specifically designed to prevent hacking’.”
Never say never, if they can break into a bank or steal a car they can hack a smart meter the same as they can hack frameworks. Howevery its not something I would be overly worrid about, rather just aware of.
