The Internet of Things (IoT) can be defined as a network of intelligent objects where physical objects are equipped with electronic and network components to enable connectivity. These smart objects are embedded with sensors that enable them to monitor, sense, and gather data pertaining to their surroundings, including the environment and human activities. The applications of IoT, both existing and forthcoming, show great promise in terms of enhancing convenience, efficiency, and automation in our daily lives. However, for the widespread adoption and effective implementation of The Internet of Things, addressing concerns related to security, authentication, privacy, and recovery from potential attacks is crucial. To achieve end-to-end security in Internet of Things environments, it is imperative to make necessary modifications to the architecture of The Internet of Things applications. In this paper, we propose assessment parameters and a layered framework that integrates The Internet of Things and blockchain to enhance
