The modern age is witnessing a significant development in information technology. The Internet of Things (henceforth IoT) technology is one such advancement. Since its emergence, it has affected people's life positively. For instance, it has provided many services to people, made their life easier and reduced effort with more accurate information in concurrent time. Although IoT technology has considerably advanced since its inception, it still faces many challenges. The biggest of which is how to protect the privacy and confidentiality of data. Consequently, information security challenges have increased to keep up with IoT technology's large amount of information. In this paper, the researchers collected, analysed and summarised reliable, relevant sources to obtain information that addressed various security threats. This paper, therefore, sheds light on the most prominent challenges facing information security in the revolution of IoT in developing countries.
