EXPLORING TOOLS AND METHODS FOR IOT DEVICE SECURITY ASSESSMENT: A COMPARATIVE STUDY
Keywords:
IoT Devices, Security Assessment, Vulnerability Scanning, Comparative Analysis, Cyber SecurityAbstract
The proliferation of Internet of Things (IoT) devices has introduced unprecedented connectivity into our lives, revolutionizing various industries and sectors. However, this widespread adoption has also raised significant security concerns, as IoT devices often lack robust security measures, making them vulnerable to cyber-attacks. In this research paper, we undertake a comprehensive study to explore various tools and methods for scanning IoT devices connected to a network. We compare and analyze different methodologies, supported by facts and figures, to evaluate their effectiveness in identifying vulnerabilities and mitigating security risks. Through our investigation, we aim to provide insights into the current landscape of IoT device security assessment and offer recommendations for enhancing the security posture of IoT ecosystems.
