  1. As artificially intelligent humanoids become increasingly prevalent in the home, it is imperative that we develop secure designs to guard against cyberattacks. The next evolution of AI-powered home devices, such as Alexa, is to create physical effectors to enable these devices to alter their environments. Current humanoids on the market, such as the EZ-Robot JD and NAO, are examples of artificially intelligent robots that may one day become common in home environments. If these humanoids are not designed to be safe against cybersecurity vulnerabilities, they may be used to cause harm to living spaces and possibly even the humans living in these spaces. This paper examines the cybersecurity of two humanoid robots and provides recommendations for future safe designs and protections in artificial intelligent social robots.
