BAD ASS!

I see in the near future a folder named "commands," on your iPhone filled with long name apps just for automation. Are you using https or some type of SSH keys to authenticate?

I know you said your running wired instead of wireless, but it sounds like you have to run some type of lightweight server to listen to the http requests. I guess you could just port forward/trigger internally through the router.



Thanks man!

Currently it's security through obscurity... so not great. I'll make the arduino only accept requests with a token next weekend.

Yeah if you take a look at the arduino code on github it's a super light http server. Currently I just do port forwarding to access it.


Of course even if you require a token, it doesn't stop replay attacks.
