The Internet of Things, also shortened with the term IoT, represents an ecosystem made of web-enabled smart devices (the IoT devices), implemented as embedded systems, which collect, send and take other actions on the data that they acquire from their environment. IoT started to grow rapidly in recent years, leading to an increasing usage of embedded systems in the daily life of common people, and in critical infrastructures of companies like SCADA systems. For this reason IoT devices started to be the target of different cyber-attacks with the objective of controlling the functionalities of the embedded system, or exfiltrating the data that are treated.
