The Personal-Internet-of-Things (PIoT) is an emerging domain encompassing devices, appliances, sensors, data, storage and computing performed in context of an individual and her environment. The data generated by individual sensors/devices is utilized by custom and third-party services to provide a high degree of personalization, automation and convenience to the user. The generated data is personal in nature requiring user-privacy to be preserved. It requires further aggregation from diverse sources and travels between the user home premises and the cloud, making it susceptible to security risks. Thus, user privacy, data security and device security need to be ensured to realize the vision of the PIoT and enable exciting new applications in the domain. This research paper proposes an architecture which delivers the hyper-personalization and smart automation vision of the PIoT in a secure and privacy preserving manner. Open issues and future work in the domain are also discussed.
