Deliverables
Do not submit an edited version of this document. You are required to submit a separate
document you create from scratch for this assignment.
Your goal for this assignment is to research how to go about doing a comprehensive Penetration
Test against an alternate type of device that has not been covered yet.
Some examples of acceptable alternate devices might include, but not limited to:
Tablets, Smart Phones, PDAs, Routers/Gateways, Switches, Tablets, SmartTV, etc…
N.B.: Laptops, PCs, servers (tower, blade or others) of ANY kind, regardless of O/S,
DO NOT qualify for this assignment.
In other words, be creative in your choice
The specific device you chose (i.e. model & basic specs)
Don’t just pick the easiest one [hint hint]
Why you chose said device
i.e. justify from a security breach potential PoV, not just ‘cause you have one
The specific process & steps required for a Penetration Test against said device
Again, in as much detail as possible (re: sample checklists, PTS standard)
Any tools that are designed to assist in Penetration Testing said device
Document the tool & site it comes from, and why this tool would assist the PenTest
Research & document any known vulnerabilities for the specific manufacturer, device &
model you chose
Document the vulnerabilities, exploit(s) that might be used, what impact the exploit(s)
would have, and the sites listing the info, etc..
Research & document what options are available, if any, to secure said chosen device
If you can’t find any, document that very fact
If there are no known options, put in some thoughts on what could be done
