IoTSeeker is a specialized tool used to identify Internet of Things (IoT) devices that are accessible over a network and are still configured with their default factory credentials. These devices often ship with insecure settings, which attackers can exploit.

From CEH v13 Official Courseware:

IoTSeeker:

Automatically scans for common IoT devices

Uses a database of known default usernames and passwords

Flags insecure devices for further investigation or exploitation

The tool is commonly used in the reconnaissance phase for identifying low-hanging vulnerabilities in IoT environments.

Incorrect options:

B. IoT Inspector monitors network traffic for smart devices but is more focused on behavior monitoring than credential scanning.

C. AT&T IoT Platform and D. Azure IoT Central are legitimate enterprise platforms for IoT device management and are not penetration testing tools.
