If a former Vice President of the United States is ordering changes to his pacemaker to better protect it from hackers, maybe you should too. In 2013, Dick Cheney revealed that he modified his defibrillator in order to avoid attacks by terrorists willing to emit a lethal jolt of electricity to his device. This one’s a scenario plenty of Homeland fans might remember seeing play out effectively in season 2, but the drama of the fallout has very real-life implications. Mal-intended hackers like terrorists could target their victims by hacking into basic electronic implants like pacemakers.
