A project to help to better detect IoT attacks

Aposemat is a project that was born in the Stratosphere Laboratory at the Czech Technical University in Prague and is funded by Avast Software

Goal

To protect IoT devices by analyzing, executing, and detecting attacks and malware

Motivation

Protect the community from treats in the IoT ecosystem

How

  • Creating and maintaining a laboratory not only to execute malware but also honeypots and exposed devices. This allow us to analyze malware and real attacks.

  • Sharing results continuously with the community through conferences talks, papers, blogpost, sharing twitter feeds and replying any inquiry related to IoT security.

  • Following different research lines to tackle the IoT Security from different angles and perspectives.

  • Developing open-source tools with the community

Our Team

 

Our Laboratory

Our IoT Laboratory have real IoT devices that are infected and attacked constantly, Some of the devices are RaspberryPi's, Alexa, NAS, IP cameras, Philips hue lamps, SmartLock, Routers, etc.
