Become a Certified IoT Penetration Tester


The Attify Certified IoT Security Pentester (ACIP) is a certification designed to assess your skill sets in Internet of Things security and penetration testing. 


This certification proves that you have a deep understanding of the Internet of Things ecosystem and it's underlying security issues. 


The Certified IoT Security Pentester certification has been built by the same team who has taught Offensive IoT Exploitation in over 13 countries and has pentested hundreds of devices in the past 5 years. The certification exam takes real practical scenarios and present it to them. 


It is an online examination consisting of 150 Multiple Choice Questions (and some subjective and diagram-based) from all different aspects of Internet of Things - Firmware, Embedded Devices, Binary Security, Web, Mobile, Software Defined Radio, Bluetooth Low Energy and ZigBee and can be taken based on your convenient time slot


The examination requires prior preparation as the examination includes questions which tests your knowledge of practical application of IoT security concepts.


After you complete the examination, the answers will be evaluated by our team and you will receive the final result within 7 days. 


To pass the examination, you will need to score 65% or above of the total marks post which receive a digital certificate, a badge which you could post on your LinkedIn or other social network to share your achievement and a physical certificate shipped to your address.

What does ACIP cover?

  • Internet of Things foundational concepts - architecture, technologies and threat modeling

  • Firmware analysis and Exploitation

  • Binary reversing and vulnerabilities in ARM and MIPS binaries 

  • Embedded Device analysis including analysing PCB components, hardware communication protocols, internals about communication protocols and security protections 

  • Conventional attack techniques such as Web, Mobile and Network based vulnerability exploitation

  • Software Defined Radio

  • Bluetooth Low Energy and ZigBee exploitation


Who is this certification for? 

If you are a job seeker looking to make a career in Internet of Things Security and Penetration Testing, the certificate will help you gain a competitive edge when it comes to the job selection process. 


If you are already working as a Penetration Tester, Red Teamer or a Security Engineer, you could use the certificate will help show your organisation that you actually know about the ins-and-outs of IoT Pentesting


If you are an IoT Security Researcher or IoT Penetration Tester or an organisation doing IoT pentesting, you could take the certification exam to prove your skillsets and gain more and better clients and pentesting engagements. 


If you are developer or a blue team member, this certification would allow you to learn about the red team perspective when it comes to Internet of Things Exploitation.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS


How much time should I ideally devote to preparing for the examination?

It depends on what is your current experience level with IoT Security. If you are taking the certification along with the Offensive IoT Exploitation training, we would recommend you to complete the Offensive IoT Exploitation training class, spend 3-4 days for preparation and then take the examination. 

If you are taking just the certification exam without the Offensive IoT Exploitation training, in that case, we would recommend for at least a week for preparation (if no prior background of IoT Security) or 2-3 days, if you have prior background in IoT Penetration testing.

What if I want to reschedule the examination after selecting a time slot?

In case you would like to reschedule the examination, please use our contact form to reach out to us for the same. Please note that examinations can only be rescheduled if it hasn't been started. 

How do I send the certificate to my employer for verification?

Once you obtain the certification, you will receive a URL for certificate verification. Share the URL along with your unique ID to the employer or any party who would like to verify the certification status.

When will I receive the printed certificate?

Once you successfully pass the examination, your printed certificate will be shipped to you within 2-3 business days. Depending on which part of the world you want your certificate to be shipped to, it might take anywhere from 2-15 business days to arrive. The certificate is shipped from California (USA).

Will I need to set up a VPN or log in to a Lab environment to take the examination?

No, you would not require a VPN or any complex environment setup to take the certificate examination. All you would require is a web browser, a webcam and a stable internet connection.
