This study revolves around the safety of IoT devices, more specifically how safe the robot vacuum cleaner Ironpie m6 is. The method is based on threat modeling the device, using the DREAD and STRIDE models. The threats with the highest estimated severity were then penetration tested to see which security measures are implemented to protect against them. Using client side manipulation one vulnerability was found in Trifo’s mobile application ”Trifo home” which could be used to harm customers property.
