Security of Aviation Apps Questioned...How Safe Am I?

Interesting question, perhaps a bit alarmist in its tone. Can something be hacked? Just ask Sony. Do you realize there is a risk involved in letting your teenage son use your IPAD EFB to surf then net- probably. Sending spurious data inconsistent with the instruments- who ya gonna believe, your IPAD or your own lyin' eyes?

Still it's good to have the conversation.
