- Description: Internet of Things (IoT) is enabling us to introduce cost-effective, innovative and intelligent services in business, industrial, and government application domains. Despite these huge potential benefits of IoT applications, since the backbone of IoT is Internet and IoT connects numerous heterogeneous devices, IoT is vulnerable to many different attacks and thus has been a honey pot to the cybercriminals and hackers. For this reason, the attacks against IoT devices are increasing sharply in recent years. To prevent and detect these attacks, ethical hacking of different IoT devices are of paramount importance. This is because the lesson learnt from these ethical hackings can be exploited to develop effective and robust strategies and mitigation approaches to protect IoT devices from these attacks. There exist a few ethical hacking techniques reported in the literature such as hacking Android phones, Windows XP virtual machine and a DNS rebinding attack on IoT devices. In this paper, we implement an approach for the ethical hacking of a Drone and then hijack it. As an outcome of lesson learnt, the mitigation approaches on how to reduce the hacking on a drone is presented in this paper. © 2022 IEEE.

- Description: This paper explains methods used to deliver online electronics and mechatronics courses and clarifies the results obtained by an online survey to understand students' e-learning experience. The purpose of this paper is to outline the challenges of online learning and to explain effective content delivery methods used to overcome those challenges. This study gives detailed descriptions for each content delivery technique, for each online lab delivery method, and for all the online assessment types used while analyzing the effectiveness of those procedures. A case study on the delivery of an online mechatronics project has also been presented. In addition, the paper presents the analyzed results obtained from the survey to improve the future delivery of online electronics and mechatronics courses in a pandemic. © 2021 IEEE.
