Discuss some of the security concerns surrounding the Pepper robot.

Pepper has several security concerns that were pointed out by Scandinavian researchers. According to them, it is easy to have unauthenticated root-level access to the bot. They also found the robot to be prone to brute force attack. Pepper's functions can be programmed using various application programming interfaces (APIs) through languages such as Python, Java, and C + +. This feature can cause it to provide access to all its sensors, making it not secure. An attacker can establish a connection and then use Pepper's mic, camera, and other features to spy on people and their conversations. This is an ongoing issue for many robots and smart speakers.
