论文摘要
软件更新对于确保系统在使用时仍没有错误和漏洞至关重要。尽管许多物联网（IoT）设备能够超越台式机和手机，但他们的软件更新实践尚未得到充分了解，尽管大量研究旨在创建新的方法来使IoT设备保持最新。本文讨论了通过物联网设备流量的网络级分析来表征IoT软件更新景观的努力。我们的结果表明，供应商当前不遵循安全性最佳实践，并且该软件更新标准虽然可用，但并未部署。
Software updates are critical for ensuring systems remain free of bugs and vulnerabilities while they are in service. While many Internet of Things (IoT) devices are capable of outlasting desktops and mobile phones, their software update practices are not yet well understood, despite a large body of research aiming to create new methodologies for keeping IoT devices up to date. This paper discusses efforts towards characterizing the IoT software update landscape through network-level analysis of IoT device traffic. Our results suggest that vendors do not currently follow security best practices, and that software update standards, while available, are not being deployed.
