Why Connected Devices Need Specialized Security Testing
IoT devices combine hardware, firmware, mobile applications, APIs, and cloud infrastructure into a single ecosystem, and a weakness in any one of those components can compromise the entire product. Traditional penetration testing approaches do not always account for the unique risks that come with embedded firmware and device-to-cloud communication. IoT security testing services look at the full ecosystem, not just one piece of it.
Firmware analysis to identify hardcoded credentials, insecure update mechanisms, and embedded secrets
Testing of device-to-cloud and device-to-device communication protocols
API and mobile application testing for the platforms that manage connected devices
What IoT Security Testing Protects You From
Protect Customer Data and Business Reputation
Detect Critical Access Control Weaknesses
Identify weak authentication that could allow unauthorized access to devices or accounts
Identify High-Risk Injection Vulnerabilities
Catch insecure communication protocols that expose data in transit
Support Application Security Compliance
Reduce supply chain risk from third-party components embedded in your product
Developer-Ready Remediation Guidance
Support compliance with emerging IoT security regulations across the USA and Canada
Our IoT Security Testing Process
We assess your IoT product as a complete system, examining the device itself, the way it communicates, and the platforms used to manage it.
IoT Security Testing Services We Provide
Firmware Security Analysis
Static and dynamic analysis of device firmware to identify hardcoded secrets, insecure update mechanisms, and exploitable vulnerabilities.
IoT Communication Protocol Testing
Testing of MQTT, CoAP, Bluetooth, Zigbee, and other protocols used for device communication to identify interception and spoofing risks.
IoT Cloud and API Testing
Assessment of the cloud platforms and APIs that devices connect to, focused on authentication and data exposure risks.
Companion Mobile App Testing
Security testing of the mobile applications used to configure, monitor, and control connected devices.
PlutoSec IoT Security Testing Services
Securing the Full IoT Ecosystem, End to End
A connected product is only as secure as its weakest layer, and that layer is rarely obvious without specialized testing. PlutoSec's team examines firmware, communication protocols, companion apps, and cloud infrastructure together, using a blend of manual testing and targeted automated analysis. We help you identify the configuration gaps, weak authentication, and embedded risks that could otherwise let an attacker take control of your devices or the data they collect, and we map our findings to the compliance expectations your IoT product needs to meet.

Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about our cybersecurity services and how we can protect your business.
IoT devices often run stripped down operating systems, use hardcoded credentials, and communicate over protocols that were never designed with security as a priority. Many were also built by manufacturers who prioritized speed to market over patching processes, which leaves long lived vulnerabilities in devices businesses assume are safe.
We assess the device firmware itself, the communication protocols it uses, the mobile or web application that controls it, and the cloud backend it reports to. A weakness in any one of these layers can expose the entire deployment, so testing only the device or only the app leaves gaps.
Yes. Our team has experience reverse engineering firmware and analyzing custom communication protocols where standard documentation is not available. We will work with you to understand the device architecture before testing begins so we know exactly where to focus.
Yes, since even a small number of connected devices can become an entry point into a larger network if they are not properly segmented. We often find that IoT devices sit on the same network as sensitive systems simply because nobody thought of them as a risk.
