Melemo le Bofokoli ba Smart Meters: Ho shebisisa Limithara tsa Motlakase tse Lefshoang Pele le Likotsi tsa ho Hacking.
Limithara tse bohlale li hlahile e le tharollo ea theknoloji ea ho beha leihlo le ho laola tšebeliso ea matla. Lisebelisoa tsena tse tsoetseng pele, tse tsejoang hape e le limithara tsa motlakase, li fetola tsela eo motlakase o lekanyang le ho lefisoa ka eona. Har'a mefuta e fapaneng ea li-smart mita tse fumanehang 'marakeng, meter e lefelloang esale pele e hlahella e le khetho e tsebahalang ka lebaka la likarolo tsa eona tse ikhethang joalo ka senotlolo sa Smartdef le bokhoni ba ho sebelisa li-tokens tsa dijithale tse lefuoang esale pele.
Methara e lefshoang, eo hape e bitsoang meter ea pele ea mohato o le mong kapa mochine oa motlakase oa digital, o sebetsa ka molao-motheo o bonolo - bareki ba lefa motlakase pele ba o sebelisa. Sistimi ena e fa basebelisi taolo e kholo holim'a tšebeliso ea bona ea matla le tšebeliso ea bona. Ka ho sebelisa likonopo tsa Smartdef, bareki ba ka eketsa chelete ea bona ea motlakase habonolo ka ho reka li-tokens tse lefuoang esale pele le ho li kenya methareng. Ts'ebetso ena e bonolo e felisa tlhoko ea ho bala metara ka letsoho, khakanyo ea likoloto, le likoloto tse phahameng tse sa lebelloang.
Melemo ea li-prepaid metres e fetela ho feta taolo ea lichelete. Limithara tsena tse bohlale li khothaletsa paballo ea matla ka ho phahamisa tlhokomeliso ea mekhoa ea tšebeliso. Basebelisi ba ka beha leihlo le ho laola ts'ebeliso ea bona ea motlakase ka mafolofolo, ba ba lumella ho etsa liqeto tse nang le tsebo ka nako ea nnete. Ho feta moo, limithara tse lefelloang esale pele li fana ka karohano e felletseng ea tšebeliso ea matla, e nolofalletsang basebelisi ho tseba lisebelisoa kapa lisebelisoa tse jang matla haholo. Ka ho utloisisa tšebeliso ea bona ea matla, bareki ba susumelletseha ho sebelisa mekhoa e baballang matla, e lebisang ho fokotseng tšebeliso ea matla le ho fokotsa khabone.
Leha ho le joalo, joalo ka ka boqapi bo bong le bo bong ba theknoloji, limithara tse bohlale li hlahisa bofokoli le likotsi tse ka bang teng. Poleloana "hack smart meter" e fana ka maikutlo a hore lisebelisoa tsena ha li na monyetla oa ho fihlella kapa ho hlekefetsoa ntle le tumello. Linokoane li ka 'na tsa leka ho fumana mokhoa oa ho sebelisa meter e bohlale, ho laola litekanyo tsa matla kapa ho sitisa ts'ebetso ea eona. Sena se baka ngongoreho mabapi le lekunutu la bareki le tshireletso.
Ho rarolla mathata ana, baetsi ba li-meter tse bohlale ba sebelisa mehato e thata ea tšireletso. Tsena li kenyelletsa liprothokholo tsa encryption, mekhoa ea netefatso, le liapdeite tsa kamehla tsa firmware ho sireletsa botšepehi ba limithara. Ho feta moo, lik'hamphani tse fanang ka litšebeletso li etsa lihlahlobo le tlhahlobo khafetsa ho netefatsa ts'ireletso le ho nepahala ha limithara.
Ho bohlokoa hore bareki ba elelloe bofokoli bo ka bang teng mme ba nke mehato ea thibelo ho sireletsa limithara tsa bona tse bohlale. Mehato e bonolo, joalo ka ho fetola li-passwords tsa kamehla, ho boloka firmware e ntse e le teng, le ho beha leihlo tšebeliso ea motlakase, e ka fokotsa haholo likotsi tsa phihlello e sa lumelloeng kapa ho e qhekella.
Qetellong, limithara tse bohlale, ho kenyelletsa le limithara tse lefuoang esale pele tse nang le likarolo tse kang senotlolo sa Smartdef, li fana ka melemo e mengata ho bareki le lik'hamphani tse sebetsang. Li matlafatsa bareki ka ho fana ka taolo e betere ea lichelete le ho khothaletsa paballo ea matla. Leha ho le joalo, bofokoli bo ka bang teng bo amanang le limithara tse bohlale, joalo ka likotsi tsa ho qhekella, li totobatsa tlhoko ea mehato e matla ea ts'ireletso le ho falimeha ha bareki. Ka ho lula u tseba le ho nka mehato ea thibelo, bareki ba ka natefeloa ke melemo ea limithara tse bohlale ha ba ntse ba fokotsa likotsi tse ka bang teng.
