Abstract
The Internet of Things is the notion of linking any gadget to the Internet and otherconnected devices (provided that it has an On/Off switch). It is a gigantic network of linked
objects and people – all collecting and sharing information about their use and the
surrounding environment. This includes an extraordinary number of items in all shapes
and sizes – ranging from smart microwaves that automatically cook your food for the
proper time period to self-driven cars whose complex sensors detect objects along their
path, to wearable fitness equipment that measure your cardiac velocity and the number of
steps taken on that day. There are even linked footboards that can track how far and
quickly they are being thrown and recorded for future training reasons using an
application. By taking advantage of major Bluetooth vulnerabilities, a cybersecurity expert
pirated a Tesla Model X in less than 90 seconds. For identical reasons, other automobiles
using FOB (wireless) keys have undergone assaults to open and start their automobiles.
Threat actors have identified a technique of scanning and replicating the interface of these
FOB keys to rob the corresponding cars with no alarm. If high-tech machines such as a
Tesla are exposed to an IoT data leak, every smart device is vulnerable to it.
