Andrew Bellini, a P.Eng and DEF CON Speaker, recently shared insights from his IoT hacking course during a Defcon talk. The talk, which is available on YouTube, serves as a 1-hour speed run of his comprehensive IoT hacking course offered by TCM Security. This free resource is highly recommended for anyone interested in IoT security.
Practice Verified Codes and Commands:
1. Scanning IoT Devices on a Network:
nmap -sP 192.168.1.0/24
This command scans the network for connected IoT devices.
2. Identifying Open Ports on an IoT Device:
nmap -p 1-65535
This command identifies open ports on a specific IoT device.
3. Brute Forcing IoT Device Login:
hydra -l admin -P /path/to/passwords.txt http-post-form "/login.php:username=^USER^&password=^PASS^:F=incorrect"
This command attempts to brute force the login of an IoT device using Hydra.
4. Sniffing IoT Traffic:
tcpdump -i eth0 -w iot_traffic.pcap
This command captures network traffic from an IoT device for analysis.
5. Exploiting Vulnerabilities with Metasploit:
msfconsole use exploit/linux/iot/exploit_name set RHOSTS exploit
This command uses Metasploit to exploit known vulnerabilities in IoT devices.
What Undercode Say:
IoT security is a critical aspect of modern cybersecurity, especially as the number of connected devices continues to grow. Understanding how to secure these devices is essential for preventing potential breaches. The commands provided above are just a starting point for those interested in IoT hacking. Tools like Nmap, Hydra, and Metasploit are invaluable for identifying vulnerabilities and securing IoT devices. Additionally, always ensure that you have permission to test devices on a network, as unauthorized access can lead to legal consequences. For further learning, consider enrolling in comprehensive courses like those offered by TCM Security, which provide in-depth knowledge and hands-on experience in IoT security.
