1. Introduction

Motivation

Our system addresses the security risks associated with the rapid expansion of IoT ecosystems, specifically how weaknesses in any of network communication, companion applications, and embedded firmware can expose users to privacy breaches and unauthorized access. There is no one, clearly structured resource that brings together all major attack surfaces of an IoT device specifically into one practical assessment workflow. Existing resources often focus on individual areas, such as network traffic, firmware, or mobile applications, in isolation as well as general security tips. This project addresses that gap by providing a unified, step-by-step framework that evaluates IoT security across all layers. As a result, the framework is useful both for IoT developers and makers preparing devices for production, as well as for consumers, integrators, or DIY users who want to verify that a device is securely configured before deployment or installation.

Intended Audience

Our IoT Device Security Assessment framework is mainly intended to be used by students, researchers, or practitioners can adopt. However, others might benefit from the concepts and test cases introduced in this guide as well.
