IoT Components LifeCycle Based Security Analysis

Johan Marconot, Florian Pebay-Peyroula, David Hély · 2017

We present in this paper a security analysis of electronic devices which considers the lifecycle properties of embedded systems. We first define a generic model of electronic devices lifecycle showing the complex interactions between the numerous assets and the actors. The method is illustrated through a case study: a connected insulin pump. The lifecycle induced vulnerabilities are analyzed using the EBIOS methodology. An analysis of associated countermeasures points out the lack of consideration of the life cycle in order to provide an acceptable security level of each assets of the device.
