International Journal of Innovations in Engineering and Technology · 2017
In the last few years, the world has witnessed major growth of everyday devices that are Internet-enabled, a concept commonly referred to as The Internet of Things.Internet of Things and cloud computing together give us the ability to sense, collect, process, and analyze data so we can use them to better understand behaviours, habits, preferences and life patterns of users and lead them to consume resources more efficiently.In such knowledge discovery activities, privacy becomes a significant challenge due to the extremely personal nature of the knowledge that can be derived from the data and the potential risks involved.The real spreading of IoT services requires customized security and privacy levels to be guaranteed.Thus this paper presents a survey on privacy and security issues in Internet of Things.
