%X Carbon monoxide can cause serious illness or even death if the
functionality of smoke alarms fails in the
residential home and, in fact, more than 350 persons die every year due to the
leak of carbon monoxide. However, vulnerabilities and threats to smoke/CO
alarms have not been well-studied. In this paper, through interconnect, a power
replay attack has been studied in order to trigger a false alarm. The
experimental results demonstrate the smoke alarm can be manipulated. This paper
also concentrates on providing a sequence of security methods to defend the
smoke alarm system. In future, how to protect smart detectors against attacks
will be studied as this can force them to leave high-quality mode of
operations.
