Developing Educational Labs for Reverse Engineering IoT Devices

Abstract

Education addressing IoT reverse engineering is currently lacking at WPI and other universities. This paper details the creation of curriculum designed to address this gap in education. Using tools common to the field of IoT reverse engineering four labs were created that each address an important stage of the reverse engineering process. A longer project to be done in parallel with the labs was also developed. Additionally, this paper details ways to improve upon its work in the future
