Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The integration of computer technology in the Internet of Things (IoT) has introduced new efficiencies, and conveniences in many sectors. However, this integration has also brought some serious challenges, and one of the most pressing ones is the need for more effective protection of privacy. This paper investigates some of the latest security developments in IoT industry, including encryption, blockchain, and artificial intelligence. Furthermore, it highlights the important challenges in IoT technology by providing an overview of data overload, regulatory and security issues in IoT devices. Besides, possible solutions to these problems are suggested in this paper. In addition, a detailed conclusion is made, which includes three future plans and some important recommendations to researchers, practitioners, and policymakers who are interested in achieving effective IoT security and privacy. The paper will have a positive impact on the research community, as it will highlight the growing need to invest in research and collaboration to improve the security of the IoT ecosystems.
