Several security flaws in existing home automation systems are highlighted. The work goes on to explain why home automation systems are such attractive targets for an attacker. We point out the role of user interfaces in security. Various home automation technologies considered in our work include context-aware home automation systems, central controller-based systems, and home automation systems. Building on this approach, the paper concludes with some ideas to address user concerns, along with ideas to help application developers create effective user-facing digital assistants.
