Internet das coisas e seu potencial para ataques de negação de serviço

Abstract

Every day the technology evolves, becoming faster and smaller and moving towards the "always connected" model. This evolution favors communication between computers and creates a new concept of the Internet for the future: Internet of Things (IoT). Along with this evolution, however, there is also a great concern about vulnerabilities in IoT devices. One of the ways to exploit the vulnerabilities in IoT is with an attack known as DoS (Denial of Service) from its devices. In order to verify the potential of IoT for such attacks, simulations using the Cooja simulator were proposed in this work. After implementing the attacks, experiments were carried out and with the analysis of its results it was concluded that it is possible to create such attacks and verify their effectiveness through the delay in the collection of information by the sensor being attacked.
