DESCRIPTION:Every cybersecurity pro dreams of the perfect smart home with a
 utomated lights\, sensors everywhere\, dashboards that rival NASA\, and a 
 doorbell cam that can predict your partner’s mood. In reality? It gets m
 essy. Automations fire at 3AM\, an ESP32 dies whenever someone microwaves 
 popcorn\, and suddenly your house is generating more alerts than a misconf
 igured SIEM.\n\nIn this session\, Erich Kron shares the wins\, fails\, and
  “why is it doing THAT?” moments from building a smart home with Home 
 Assistant\, ESPHome\, LEDs\, and DIY sensors from the depths of the intern
 et. You’ll learn how to design a secure\, reliable setup without creatin
 g Skynet Lite\, the difference between automation and over-automation\, wh
 ich DIY sensors are actually useful (including for chickens)\, and why seg
 mentation\, encryption\, and patching matter.\n\nYou’ll leave with templ
 ates\, real-world tips\, and enough cautionary tales to keep your home fro
 m becoming an IoT haunted house\, while building one that works… most of
  the time.
