DESCRIPTION:The importance of making more sustainable choices in our daily 
 activities is now deeply embedded within our social practices and is a cor
 e part of what we teach our children. Indeed\, most modern businesses have
  ‘green’ policies that underpin regarding how they source products and
  services\, consume energy\, and dispose of waste. A good example of this 
 is the growth of the use of highly automated Internet-connected building m
 anagement systems within the construction of environmentally friendly home
 s and commercial buildings.\n\nDropping down to the consumer-level\, many 
 individuals are also increasingly embracing green technologies in terms of
  how they live their lives. We are seeing a massively increased usage of e
 lectric and hybrid vehicles\, e-bikes\, IoT-enabled electrified public tra
 nsport\, smart bulbs\, and solar-powered Internet-enabled security cameras
 . \n\nHowever\, on closer review\, many critical security vulnerability an
 d privacy assurance mechanisms are absent within these increasingly autono
 mous technologies. Many green tech companies are working on cutting-edge t
 echnologies that have not yet been thoroughly tested or implemented on a l
 arge scale. \n\nThis could lead to situations where\, if a malicious actor
  took over an intelligent thermostat or door-locking mechanism\, they coul
 d create an internal climate which was excessively hot or cold\, or remote
 ly disarm a premises door locking mechanisms.  Scenarios such as this have
  physical safety implications for building occupants. They also have serio
 us reputational harm implications for the business owners associated with 
 these green buildings.
