Objects are getting connected to the internet, forming what we call the Internet of Things (IoT) as technology is advancing day by day. This has made our lives easier in many ways, but it’s also raised concerns about how secure these devices really are. In our research paper, we’re looking into a specific problem with an IoT setup where someone could hack into LED lights that are supposed to be controlled by legitimate users. The system works with an ESP32 microcontroller and a simple web page that lets users turn the lights on and off easily. But, there are some big security holes in this setup that could let bad actors mess with the lights without permission. The work demonstrates the vulnerable of a typical IoT systems by simulation of attack using KALI LINUX and discuss the security challenges and issues for an IOT system.
