Researchers said they were able to interact with the device’s anti-theft system, cruise control and eco mode, as well as update its firmware, without required authentication according to information released Tuesday by security research group Zimperium.

This information has been verified in several sources. The main source is cnet.com. I made this mention because it generated controversial discussions in the US. I know we tend to see this incident as an effect of Xiaomi’s intention to officially launch the US market. But I also know that technology development must be done with technological responsibility.

We’ve been through the gadgets and technological devices they wanted to just comfort. They have become aware of the importance of their security while using the devices. This evolution is known by the major manufacturers of technological equipment. In a short time, launching a product will not begin with the list of technical features. Presentations will begin with the result of security tests.

Presentations will begin with the result of the security tests they have undergone.

We expect a period when we will choose the brand of a product connected to the Internet depending on the security systems offered by that brand. Until then, we can only be cautious. It is premature to talk about protection.

I told you on other occasions that Xiaomi is a group. A group that will offer more smart products and services. A group that will use a single security system.

I await the official Xiaomi response in this regard. I’m curious to see if they adopt silence or recognize this vulnerability. It’s called maturity.
