Indian-origin researchers report cybersecurity risks with 3D printing

3D printing has huge potential in commercial markets as well as for individuals
A team comprising of Indian-origin researchers has found cybersecurity risks in 3D printing by examining two aspects – printing orientation and insertion of fine defects. They found that since Computer-Aided Drafting (CAD) files – used in the creation, modification, analysis, or optimisation of a design – do not give instructions for printer head orientation, malefactors could alter the process wit
