Can IOT learn from History?

As the world keeps on getting excited with IOT and the security (or lack thereof) is getting a lot of attention. Karl Marx famously stated that “History repeats itself, first as a tragedy, second as a farce” so a look at the same issues in current infrastructures such as remote terminal units (RTU) Programmable logic controller (PLC) and the latest discovery with the Ovarro RTU proves that the history like Stuxnet is an relevant exaple of the problems IOT will face.
