IoT security and standards
Shiji Abraham, K. Alakananda · 2026
As IoT will provide access to all the information to internet now a days, these fails in maintaining data security that causes a lot of problems like hacking personal information related to medical field, bank details, and other personal informations. The newly security challenges that arises from IoT is data privacy, integrity, and system functionality. To overcome these issues, the protocols such as transport layer security (TLS), data transport layer security (DTLS), constrained application protocol (CoAP), along with emerging standards like those developed by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), and International Organization for Standardization (ISO) are helpful to maintain security of data from IoT. This chapter focuses on challenges associated with their protocols resource-constrained IoT environments, examines the effectiveness of existing standards in addressing various attack vectors, including unauthorized access, data breaches, and attacks service such as denial, and offers insights for future directions for developing robust IoT security solutions that can support the growing complexity of connected networks.
