Purpose of this thesis was to analyze the state of firmware update security within SOHO (Small Office/Home Office) routers as anecdotal claims of insecure routers are common and firmware updates are critical to the overall device security. A case study was performed, where 12 devices were analyzed using network and firmware level analysis. Analyzed devices were found to have trivial vulnerabilities where Man-In-The-Middle attacker could deny further updates or install malicious firmware through the network update mechanism. Results highlight the need for large-scale security analysis of similar devices and more secure development practices.

Towards Automated Classification of Firmware Images and Identification of Embedded Devices
Costin, Andrei; Zarras, Apostolis; Francillon, Aurélien (Springer, 2017)Embedded systems, as opposed to traditional computers, bring an incredible diversity. The number of devices manufactured is constantly increasing and each has a dedicated software, commonly known as firmware. Full ... -
A Lightweight, User-Controlled System for the Home
Baillie, Lynne; Schatz, Raimund (University of Jyväskylä, Agora Center, 2006)This paper explores how we designed, with input from some elderly persons, a multi-agent user-controlled network for the home. The system was designed to support the elderly in living longer at home with minimal support. ... -
