Our IoT Security Testing Process

1. Scoping

Define device, interfaces and attack surface

2. Assessment

Manual testing across hardware, firmware, network & cloud

3. Reporting

Detailed findings with risk ratings & proof of impact

4. Remediation

Actionable guidance and secure design recommendations

5. Retest & Verify

Validate fixes and issue attestation certificate

Overview

IoT security is the practice of protecting connected devices and the networks they communicate across- spanning the physical hardware, the firmware that runs on it, the radio and network links it uses, and the companion apps and cloud services it talks to. IoT security testing evaluates connected devices across their full ecosystem, including hardware, firmware, wireless and network communications, companion apps and cloud APIs.

Methodology & Standards

Every engagement begins with a scoping phase that defines the full attack surface across hardware, firmware, radio, companion app and cloud, so the right interfaces and standards are agreed before any testing begins. The work is aligned to the OWASP IoT Top 10, OWASP IoT Security Testing Guide (ISTG) and the OWASP Firmware Security Testing Methodology (FSTM), mapped to ETSI EN 303 645 for EU CRA and UK PSTI.

What's Included

Hardware interface and firmware extraction analysis
Wireless testing (Wi-Fi, BLE, Zigbee, RF)
Companion app and cloud API assessment
Update-integrity and hardcoded-secret analysis

Testing Types

IoT penetration testing

Hands-on exploitation across the device, its radios, companion apps and cloud APIs to prove how real-world attack paths chain together.

Threat modelling

Structured analysis of the device's architecture, data flows and trust boundaries to identify where it is most likely to be attacked and prioritise testing accordingly.

Firmware analysis

Extraction and reverse engineering of firmware to uncover hardcoded credentials, insecure update mechanisms, exposed services and known-vulnerable components.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, ideally two or three units so we can test hardware interfaces, extract firmware and keep a reference, along with companion apps and cloud details.

Yes. Our findings and attestation letters map directly to ETSI EN 303 645, the technical standard that underpins both the EU Cyber Resilience Act and the UK Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure regime. The report can be used as supporting evidence within your compliance or conformity assessment process, giving you a documented, independent basis for your security claims.

We start with a scoping and threat-modelling session that maps the device's full attack surface- hardware interfaces, firmware, wireless protocols, companion apps and cloud APIs- and identifies the trust boundaries most likely to be targeted. From there we agree which interfaces, radios and standards are in scope, so testing is focused on the paths that present real risk to your product. You receive the scope and attack surface in writing before any testing starts.
