Security Issues in the Internet of Things (IoT): A Gap Analysis

Abstract

Wireless communication networks are highly prone to security threats. The major applications of wireless communication networks are in military, business, healthcare, retail, and transportations. This system is used as wired, cellular or ad hoc networks. Wireless sensor networks, actuators networks, and vehicular networks have received a great attention in society and industry. In recent years, the Internet of Things (IoT) has received outsized research attention. The IoT is considering as future of the internet. In future, IoT will play a vital role and will change our living styles, standards, as well as business models. The usage of IoT in different applications rises quickly in coming years. The IoT will connect billions of devices, peoples, and services to share their information. The increased usage of IoT devices, the IoT networks are prone to various security attacks. The utilize efficient security; privacy protocols in IoT networks is extremely needed to make sure confidentiality, authentication, access control, and integrity, among others. In this paper work, an extensive complete study on security and privacy issues in IoT networks is provided.
