The recently emerged Internet of Things (IoT) has already become largely prevalent in today's society. However, strong and fundamental security practices have not been applied to fully protect these systems, partially negating the benefits of IoT. The concept has grown so much in recent years that this lack of a security infrastructure can no longer be ignored. Recent developments in the field of IoT and robotics have proven invaluable in building a solid framework for what lies ahead. This paper focuses on the examination and enhancement of security between IoT enabled robots, specifically in this project, TurtleBots, and the cloud infrastructure supporting them by providing a combined set of security best practices for robotic file systems and communications.
