Abstract

Internet of things (IoT) dramatically influences our daily lives in several domains, ranging from teeny wearable devices to large industrial systems. IoT technology aims to enhance humans life quality. Nevertheless, IoT is vulnerable to various cyberattacks and needs challenging techniques in order to achieve their security. The principal objective of IoT security is to protect the privacy of the customers, the data integrity and confidentiality, the security of infrastructures and IoT devices, likewise, ensure the availability of services provided by an IoT ecosystem. In this work, we present the IoT security challenges and countermeasures.
