IoT PENETRATION TESTING

Approach

Our IoT penetration tests are conducted from the perspective of an external malicious black-hat hacker. Based on your requirements, we can conduct either black box, grey box or white box test. We methodically follow the following steps:

Scoping: Our testing experts will engage in discovery activities, such as IoT penetration test security needs and requirements, existing SLAs, risks potential vulnerability exposures and defining the scope. Other aspects succh complexity, tailoring possibilities and threat intelligence focus will also analyzed.

Reconnaissance — We will conduct IoT security discovery activities, such as reviewing hardware flaws, firmware at risk and other potential vulnerability exposures. Reverse engineering of elements extracted from the hardware equipment will be studied as well.

Exploitation: During this phase we will perform the attacks, trying to breach the IoT device. This will test your IoT products resiliency to attack, the coverage of your security monitoring, and your detection capabilities’ efficacy.

Remediation Verification — IoT penetration testers perform a follow-up assessment to ensure that the exploitation phase’s remediation and mitigation steps have been accurately implemented. This also enables the testers to confirm that the customer’s security posture is aligned with industry best practices.

Cleanup, document analysis, report creation and report presentation to stakeholders to easily benchmark security level of each process based on the results of penetration tests and implementation of countermeasures if requested by the customer.
