IOT SECURITY AND SOFTWARE TESTING

Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) symbolizes the era of increased information exchange and interaction between devices through Internet of Things technology. However, this fascinating technology brings with it a number of security challenges. Some of the security issues stem from the nature of IoT devices. IoT devices are often designed to be cheap and uncomplicated. As a result, security tests may be neglected and security vulnerabilities may arise. There are other factors that compromise the security of IoT devices. For example, most IoT devices have standard passwords that have not been changed. Attackers can easily seize devices by manipulating them. There are data leaks from compromised devices.
