Abstract:

Internet of Things (IoT) is rapidly developing and glamorous technology in which machines and devices are connected and interacted with each other via Internet anywhere anytime. This technology, which brings advantages, facilities and efficiency in many areas from city management to smart buildings, from health-care to industry, from energy to agriculture, etc. has also brought along numerous challenges in terms of security. IoT is vulnerable to various types of attacks, malfunctions and misuses due to these challenges reasoning such as resource limitations, heterogeneity, lack of standardization, mobility, architecture. In this paper, we present the state of the art for cyber security issues in IoT. We provide a comparison for IoT security in different perspectives including threats, vulnerabilities and some countermeasures. We give some recommendations on the precautions and countermeasures for cyber security issues in IoT.
