Claim Text:
1. An apparatus for analyzing vulnerability of a Zigbee network, comprising: an allocation supporting unit for analyzing an environment of a Zigbee network and allocating a plurality of analyzers to multiple channels of the Zigbee network; a public vulnerability inspection unit for inspecting the Zigbee network for predefined public vulnerability via the plurality of analyzers; and a new vulnerability analysis unit for analyzing new vulnerability of the Zigbee network via the plurality of analyzers, wherein the allocation supporting unit allocates one or more analyzers to only each channel in use among the multiple channels, based on results of analysis of the environment of the network, wherein the public vulnerability inspection unit comprises: an attack execution module for analyzing a state of the Zigbee network by executing a network attack on the Zigbee network; a management item inspection module for inspecting whether a management item of the Zigbee network has been set to a preset state; and a network vulnerability inspection module for inspecting the Zigbee network for topology configuration and vulnerable sections using an algorithm used for inspection of the Zigbee network, wherein the public vulnerability inspection unit reports results of analysis performed by the attack execution module, the management item inspection module, and the vulnerability inspection module to a manager, and wherein the new vulnerability analysis unit comprises: an emulator module for operating the plurality of analyzers in conformity with a preset scenario and analyzing the Zigbee network; a simulation module for simulating a packet communication procedure previously performed by the Zigbee network; and an external equipment interworking module for analyzing the Zigbee network via interworking with external equipment.
