Abstract

This chapter deals with the security flaws of social network of things. The network of things (NoT) is a dynamic structure that is basically an interface of real world and virtual world having capabilities of collection and sharing data over a shared network. The social network of things (SNoT) is a versatile way of connecting virtual and real world. Like any other device connected to internet, objects in SNoT are also vulnerable to the various security and privacy attacks. Generally, to secure Social Network of Things in which human intervention is absent, data capturing devices must be avoided. Types of security attacks that are huge threats to NoT as well as SNoT will be discussed in the chapter. The huge collection of information without necessary security measures allows an intruder to misuse the personal data of owner. Different types of attacks with reference to the different layers are also discussed in detail. The best possible potential solutions for the security of devices in SNoT will be considered.
