Awesome Embedded and IoT Security Awesome

A curated list of awesome resources about embedded and IoT security. The list contains software and hardware tools, books, research papers and more.

Botnets like Mirai have proven that there is a need for more security in embedded and IoT devices. This list shall help beginners and experts to find helpful resources on the topic.
If you are a beginner, you should have a look at the Books and Case Studies sections.
If you want to start right away with your own analysis, you should give the Analysis Frameworks a try. They are easy to use and you do not need to be an expert to get first meaningful results.

Items marked with 💶 are comercial products.

Contents

Software Tools

Software tools for analyzing embedded/IoT devices and firmware.

Analysis Frameworks

Analysis Tools

  • Binwalk - Searches a binary for "interesting" stuff, as well as extracts arbitrary files.
  • cwe_checker - Finds vulnerable patterns in binary executables - ELF support for x86, ARM, and MIPS, experimental bare-metal support.
  • emba - Analyze Linux-based firmware of embedded devices.
  • Firmadyne - Tries to emulate and pentest a firmware.
  • Firmwalker - Searches extracted firmware images for interesting files and information.
