Abstract: Internet Of Things(IOT) is a trending technology which is making the digital world a better platform with wide variety of applications. In this context, the security of IOT device is a major concern which has attracted many researchers and made it necessary to strengthen the IOT system from vulnerabilities from attacker’s point of view. For which Penetration testing is the best technique. As the wireless technology advances, the security of the IOT devices should also advance. In this paper, Man-In-The-Middle (MITM) attack was performed using a simple Wireshark tool and the vulnerabilities were identified and different defensive mechanisms were outlined.
Keywords: Penetration testing, Wireshark, MITM , wireless devices, vulnerabilities, defensive mechanisms..
