DEF CON 32: Beginner’s Guide to Hacking IoT Devices 🔧

Yes, anyone can hack IoT devices and I’ll show you how! It doesn’t matter if you’re an experienced pen tester in other fields, completely new to cybersecurity or just IoT curious, by the end of this talk you’ll have the knowledge to hack your first device. You might be thinking - but I thought IoT was complicated, required knowledge of hardware, and expensive tools. In this talk, I’m here to dispel those myths by directly showing you the methodology, tools and tactics you can use to go and hack an IoT device today (or maybe when you get home). I’ll cover what IoT devices are best for beginners, what tools you need (and don’t need), how to build a small toolkit for less than $100, common tactics to get a foothold into IoT devices and how to find your first vulnerability or bug.
