IoT Penetration Testing
We evaluate IoT devices and their supporting platforms for software-side vulnerabilities such as firmware flaws, insecure network protocols, and weak authentication.
What is IoT Penetration Testing?
IoT penetration testing is a security assessment of connected devices and their supporting platforms, covering firmware analysis, network protocol security, authentication mechanisms, physical interfaces (UART/JTAG), and cloud backend APIs.
Testing Checklist
Every engagement covers these critical security areas.
Testing Methodology
A structured, repeatable process that ensures thorough coverage and actionable results.
Device Profiling
Identify device hardware, firmware version, communication protocols, and cloud backend integrations for comprehensive attack surface mapping.
Firmware Analysis
Extract and analyze firmware for hardcoded credentials, insecure configurations, vulnerable libraries, and backdoor access points.
Communication Testing
Intercept and analyze device-to-cloud, device-to-device, and device-to-app communications for encryption and authentication weaknesses.
Authentication & Access Control
Test default credentials, authentication mechanisms, pairing processes, and access control enforcement on device and cloud APIs.
Physical Interface Testing
Assess UART, JTAG, SPI, and other debug interfaces for unauthorized access, firmware extraction, and privilege escalation.
Reporting & Remediation
Deliver IoT-specific findings with firmware hardening recommendations and secure communication implementation guidance.
Framework Alignment
Our methodology is aligned with industry-recognized security frameworks for thorough coverage and compliance readiness.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is IoT penetration testing?
IoT penetration testing is a security assessment of connected devices and their supporting platforms, covering firmware analysis, network protocol security, authentication mechanisms, physical interfaces (UART/JTAG), and cloud backend APIs.
Do you test the physical hardware?
Yes. We assess physical debug interfaces (UART, JTAG, SPI), firmware extraction, and hardware-level attack vectors in addition to software-side testing.
