Overview
Explore MIPS-X as the next frontier in IoT vulnerability research through this conference talk from the Hack In The Box Security Conference. Learn about creating a framework and documentation for MIPS device research using a Dockerized environment. Discover techniques for setting up emulated IoT devices with minimal effort, including target MIPS architecture virtual machines with full network stacks and debugging tools. Gain insights into IoT vulnerability research methods, CPU architectures, virtualization, kernel building, cross-compilation, and system emulation. Follow along with a demo and understand the next steps in this evolving field of cybersecurity.
