Nowadays IoT devices are preferred target for hackers. One attack, which is often preferred by hackers because of its high scalability and impact, is the remote installation of malware. Therefore, proving that a device runs legitimate software free from malware is of critical importance. This thesis is focused on the security of IoT devices. It contributes to the state-of-the-art in two main directions: 1) it demonstrates shortcomings of standard malware detection primitives and proposes novel such primitives, 2) it proposes novel malware countermeasure techniques.
