Abstract :
The home of the future should be a smart one, to support us in our daily life. Up to now only a few security incidents in that area are known. Depending on different security analyses, this fact is rather a result of the low spread of Smart Home products than the success of such systems security. Given that Smart Homes become more and more popular, we will consider current incidents and analyses to estimate potential security threats in the future. The definitions of a Smart Home drift widely apart. Thus we first need to define Smart Home for ourselves and additionally provide a way to categorize the big mass of products into smaller groups.
