Security Awareness and Forensic Investigation of Junior Zenbo Robot

Abstract

Recently, the Internet of Things (IoT) technology has played a crucial role in our daily lives. It ensures the automatic transfer and response between various smart devices. Likewise, it enhances connections within networks and provides access to different information and data, making our lives easier. The innovation of the humanoid robot, which utilizes IoT technology, positively impacts our daily activities in many ways. However, compromising these robots may raise privacy and security concerns. This work aims to increase security awareness for robot users by highlighting and conducting common possible cyberattacks on Junior Zenbo robots using open, unsecured ports and weak Wi-Fi security, leading attackers to gain unauthorized access. In addition, the study intends to provide a comprehensive forensic guide that has been illustrated, detailing major Zenbo robot artifacts that can support forensic examiners in their investigations.
