Expectations are good, but is this a matter of rose-tinted goggles or an actual positive outlook for the space? Why Cybersecurity compliance matters for smart home integrations. What needs to happen to secure the network as more systems go online. HARMAN finalizes their acquisition of Sound United. What this means for both companies moving forward.
