Security Evaluation
1. Device Security
| Criterion
|
Value
|
Proof
|
Comment
|
| Known hardware tampering
|
Very common
|
🔗 Proof
|
Fully open hardware, easy overclocking, custom HAT add-ons, easy flashing of custom firmware/OS images
|
| Known vulnerabilities
|
Very common
|
🔗 Proof
|
Runs standard Linux; vulnerabilities depend heavily on installed OS and user packages; default security is weak out‑of‑box
|
| Prior attacks
|
Rare
|
🔗 Proof
|
Most attacks are local lab research; mass internet‑facing exploitation is uncommon, but insecure exposed SSH services are frequently scanned
|
| Updatability
|
Very common
|
🔗 Proof
|
APT package updates, OS image upgrades, regular firmware updates from Raspberry Pi foundation
|
| Category Score
|
Score: 3 / 3
|
2. System Security
| Criterion
|
Value
|
Proof
|
Comment
|
| Authentication with other systems
|
Partial
|
🔗 Proof
|
Local Linux user auth; can integrate with SSH keys, OAuth, cloud services depending on user configuration
|
| Communications
|
Encrypted with up-to-date encryption
|
🔗 Proof
|
TLS, SSH, WPA2/WPA3, Bluetooth encryption are available, enabled at user discretion
|
| Storage
|
Encrypted with up-to-date encryption
|
🔗 Proof
|
Full disk encryption (LUKS) can be configured manually; not enabled by default
|
| Category Score
|
Score: 2 / 3
|
3. User Authentication
| Criterion
|
Value
|
Proof
|
Comment
|
| Account management
|
Basic
|
🔗 Proof
|
Standard Linux local user account system
|
| Authentication
|
Basic
|
🔗 Proof
|
Password login, SSH key login; no built-in secure boot by default
|
| Brute-force protection
|
Absent
|
🔗 Proof
|
No built‑in rate limiting; users must install fail2ban manually
|
| Event logging
|
Partial logging
|
🔗 Proof
|
Standard Linux syslog; login and service logs exist locally
|
| Passwords
|
Require change after setup with complexity requirements
|
🔗 Proof
|
Default password exists; users are strongly recommended to change it after first boot

Raspberry Pi 5 8GB (SC0515) is a high-performance open single-board computer built around the BCM2712 SoC. It is widely used for IoT prototyping, home automation, edge computing and education. It runs Linux operating systems and has flexible connectivity options. Security is user‑managed: default configuration is insecure, encryption and hardening must be manually configured. Hardware modification and custom OS deployment are straightforward.
