Abstract
The idea of the Internet of Things that everything is linked to anything and everything interacts with the other is a great idea, and that the topic of integrating these devices will add a remarkable change in this world and increase its prosperity, and this interconnection occurs through the exchange of data and information and facilitating our communication with the things around us. But questions about security and privacy remain. When this massive amount of data is exchanged, it will certainly be an attractive environment for attackers and hackers. In this paper, we will present the issues of security and privacy, their main requirements, potential risks and tools to defend these risks, and a detailed review of security attacks in order to be able to deter these attacks achieve confidentiality, security and reliability for users.
