Software defined radio (SDR) is an emerging technology focused on flexible radio implementation and design reusability. Complex radio protocols can be implemented quickly via software and deployed across a variety of diverse radio hardware. This presentation will focus on the application of SDR to the ever growing Internet of Things (IoT) with a specific focus on Home Automation. An overview of wireless attack vectors will be presented along with the results of their exploration. Attack techniques, defensive strategies, best practices and future market recommendations will also be discussed.
