Abstract

The rapid expansion of Internet of Things (IoT) devices underscores the critical importance of robust security protocols, particularly in the realm of children's toys. This study introduces an innovative multi-factor authentication strategy integrating Quick Response (QR) codes with Blockchain technology to fortify the security of IoT toys designed for children. The primary objective is to safeguard young users against potential threats stemming from unauthorized access, thereby ensuring a secure interaction with IoT-enabled toys. By amalgamating authentication factors, including QR codes, the proposed approach establishes a multilayered security framework. Leveraging the inherent immutability and transparency of Blockchain, the system verifies the authenticity of IoT toys by scanning a unique QR code, thus mitigating risks associated with malwares and unauthorized access. The decentralization of Blockchain ensures no single point of failure, enhancing resilience against cyber threats. Extensive usability studies underscore the efficacy and practicality of the advanced multi-factor authentication solution, poised to elevate the safety standards of IoT toys in the digital age. This innovative approach not only bolsters security but also fosters trust among users, enabling seamless and worry-free interaction with IoT-enabled toys for children worldwide.
