For the last couple of years, the Internet of Things (IoT) has grown rapidly. Often, the objects connected to the IoT contain security vulnerabilities, which can be exploited to perform Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks. The problem is that most of these devices are owned by non-technical skilled users which do not know their devices are comprised and, if known, do not know how to act in order to protect them. This paper aims to raise the awareness of the average Internet user on the misusage of their IoT devices to perform DDoS Attacks. We propose an easy to use methodology that enables non-technical users to discover the vulnerabilities in their IoT devices and protect themselves against them.
