Our Embedded Device and Internet of Things (IoT) Security Testing service performs controlled offensive testing of embedded and IoT devices.
Connected devices, IoT platforms, and embedded systems are increasingly integrated into critical business processes and daily life.
We test firmware and source code, to binaries and hardware interfaces, validating weaknesses, and providing actionable guidance to secure devices before attackers exploit them.
What we offer
Contact us for our Embedded Device and IoT Security Testing if you want to ensure your devices are secure.
Early identification
From smart home devices and industrial IoT sensors, to medical equipment and automotive systems, a single vulnerability can lead to operational disruption, data compromise, or regulatory penalties.
Offensive testing ensures vulnerabilities are identified before attackers can exploit them, safeguarding your products, customers, and business operations.
What you receive
Our Embedded Device and IoT Security Testing combines manual testing, firmware analysis, hardware evaluation, and controlled network testing. We will providing actionable guidance to harden your devices before attackers exploit them.
You’ll receive a comprehensive and actionable report, which includes:
A summary highlighting device risk
Technical findings with reproduction steps
Proof-of-concept demonstration of exploitations
Risks prioritisation based on potential operational, safety, or data impact
Remediation guidance for development and security teams
Recommendations for improving secure design and lifecycle management
industries
Who we’ve helped
We have extensive experience securing embedded and IoT devices across a wide range of industries:
Financial and Payment Devices
Telecommunications and Networking
Healthcare and Medical Devices
Automotive and Transportation
Retail and Logistics
Industrial and Manufacturing
Government and Public Sector
Aerospace and Defence
Energy and Utilities
Smart Cities and Infrastructure
Our experience allows us to adapt testing approaches for diverse device architectures, regulatory environments, and industry-specific threat profiles.
What we assess
Our Embedded Device and IoT Security Testing covers the full embedded device ecosystem. We identify vulnerabilities across software, firmware, hardware, and communication layers
Vulnerabilities include source code review and binary analysis, hard-coded credentials and cryptographic weaknesses, buffer overflows, command injection, and memory corruption, insecure update mechanisms and rollback vulnerabilities
Many AI models are integrated into web applications, chatbots, or enterprise tools. Vulnerabilities include, prompt injection through user inputs, sensitive information leaked through responses, insecurely handled user prompts, AI-powered automation features, improper validation of AI-generated outputs.
Vulnerabilities include unencrypted or weakly encrypted protocols (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Zigbee, LoRaWAN), unauthenticated API endpoints, poor session management or key exchange protocols, exposure to remote exploitation.
Vulnerabilities include mobile and web applications interacting with devices, cloud APIs and authentication mechanisms, data integrity and privacy issues, weak access control across ecosystems.
What frameworks we follow
Our Embedded Device and IoT Security Testing aligns with the following frameworks:
OWASP IoT Top Ten
NISTIR 8259
ISO/IEC 27001
IEC 62443 – relevant for industrial IoT
ENISA IoT Security Guidelines
Our testing is aligned with global best practices, helping organisations meet compliance, regulatory, and internal security requirements.
FAQ
Find answers to common questions about our services and what to expect from your experience with us.
Can testing damage the device?
No. Testing is conducted in controlled, safe conditions. We simulate attacks without causing permanent damage unless agreed for proof-of-concept purposes.
Do you test device ecosystems?
Yes, including companion mobile apps, cloud platforms, and network interactions.
Are software-only devices included?
Absolutely. Our methodology covers fully embedded devices as well as connected IoT systems.
How often should embedded devices be tested?
Typically prior to launch, after major firmware updates, or on a periodic schedule to ensure ongoing security.
