Description: Functionality assessment is the process of evaluating the features and capabilities of a system or application. In the context of IoT (Internet of Things) security, this evaluation becomes a critical aspect, as connected devices can be vulnerable to various threats. Functionality assessment involves analyzing how a device or system handles authentication, authorization, data integrity, and confidentiality. Additionally, it examines the capabilities for incident response and resilience against cyberattacks. This process not only focuses on identifying weaknesses but also on verifying that the implemented security functionalities meet relevant standards and regulations. Functionality assessment in IoT security is essential to ensure that devices not only operate efficiently but also protect sensitive information and maintain user privacy. As the number of IoT devices continues to grow, the importance of this evaluation becomes increasingly evident, as a security failure can have significant repercussions at both personal and business levels.
