RIOT powers the Internet of Things like Linux powers the Internet. RIOT is a free, open source operating system developed by a grassroots community gathering companies, academia, and hobbyists, distributed all around the world.
RIOT supports most low-power IoT devices and microcontroller architectures (32-bit, 16-bit, 8-bit). RIOT aims to implement all relevant open standards supporting an Internet of Things that is connected, secure, durable & privacy-friendly.

There is this modern world NEED to tag every fucking technology or IT “spin-off” with a buzzword or product name… lol
Risthel,
How else will the vulture capitalists in Silicon Ally know which flash-in-the-pan technology to fund without all of the weasel speak? You have to square the circle and pivot all your IOT machine learning into the block-chain cloud before Big Data finds out what you’re up to and banishes you to the full-stack Dark web!

Nowhere in that page is security mentioned.
Not once.
What does the “S” in IoT stand for?
Security
There’s no ‘S’ in ‘IoT’! Ooooooooooh. Right.
However, the web page does say this about that
