Abstract/Summary
The rapid expansion of the Internet of Things (IoT) has revolutionized industries by enabling connected smart devices to monitor, communicate, and automate tasks in real-time. Central to the functioning of many IoT systems are microcontrollers like the ESP32, a versatile and low-cost microcontroller known for its integrated Wi-Fi and Bluetooth capabilities. The ESP32's powerful processing, energy efficiency, and adaptability make it a popular choice for IoT applications ranging from smart home devices to industrial automation. However, as IoT adoption grows, so too do the security challenges posed by vulnerabilities in these devices, particularly within ESP32-based systems. For this project, I explored different vulnerabilities and malware attacks on the ESP32 microchip.
