Cover Story: Due to its low power consumption and long-range communication qualities, LPWAN (especially LoRa) will be a very strong candidate technology to serve as a backhaul architecture for IoT networks. Therefore, the applicability issues of LoRaWAN for IoT are of prime importance. One of these issues is security. Hence, this article investigates the security vulnerabilities of LoRaWAN v1.1 and presents them in ETSI's Security Risk Analysis format. View this paper.
