A Review on Security and Privacy Issues in Internet of Things

Abstract

In India, building smart cities is most necessary project for current government, with respect to the getting the status of developed country. But, smart cities are not just built in months, they took years to build because several components need to work together perfectly (which are comes under an ecosystem). To fulfil such goal/smart cities, Internet of Things is mostly used devices to communication with other Internet-connected devices or to do necessary task (for smart city). In near future, most of the things (around the world) will be connected with technology, for example, smart homes, smart cities, smart transportation systems, smart grids, etc., are the applications of advancement in technology (due to integration of Internet of Things together). But, connecting of Internet of Things (IoTs) devices together raised several critical issues like security, privacy, and trust in an ecosystem. In general, Internet of Things (IoTs) are the devices which are connected to do other devices and communicating through sensors and Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) tags (in the physical world), also through Internet infrastructure. Such issues and challenges need to be listed/investigated for future research. Hence, this article identifies such issues and discusses all of them in detail (from every possible point of view). Together this, this paper also discusses the several benefits or applications of Internet of Things in detail.
