device/network;
2) Verify the effectiveness if
authentication and authorisation;
3) Ensure proper transmission and
storing of sensitive data.

15. 1) Firmware analysis (hard coded
passwords, insecure protocols)
2) Network verification
3) API testing (auth, data validation)
4) Physical Security Checks (tamper
detection, boot process)
5) Mobile app verification
6) Cloud Security Verification (data
storage, access)
Cyber Security QA Approach. Techniques

16. Cyber Security QA Approach. Benefits

effectively manage the
expected workload

21. Performance QA Approach. Techniques
1) Load (ability to handle high volume of data
or request)
2) Stress (high data traffic, device overload)
3) Endurance (device overheating, memory
fragmentation)
4) Power Consumption (battery
management)

22. Performance QA Approach. Benefits
