Internet-of-Things Security and Vulnerabilities: Case Study

Abstract The incorporation of IoT in the world has had tremendous popularity in the field of Technology. This great innovation has enabled seamless transformation in business and operation transformation. However, significant usage of this innovation also poses a security threat which has become a more critical point of concern to many businesses across the globe. Many companies that depend on IoT have faced security breaches and threats. The IoT countermeasures have not been well-factored upon, which poses a more significant challenge to many organizations that heavily rely on this technology. In this survey, we propose a security survey that will help tackle the problems associated with IoT and offer security solutions on all the IoT layers. The results show that authentication is the most critical security measure to implement in IoT.
