Securing the Internet of Things: New Perspectives and Research Challenges
share
The Internet of Things (IoT) realizes a vision where billions of interconnected devices are deployed just about everywhere, from inside our bodies to the most remote areas of the globe. As the IoT will soon pervade every aspect of our lives and will be accessible from anywhere, addressing critical IoT security threats is now more important than ever. Traditional approaches where security is applied as an afterthought and as a "patch" against known attacks are insufficient. IoT challenges require a new secure-by-design vision, where threats are addressed proactively and IoT devices learn to dynamically adapt to different threats. In this paper, we first provide a taxonomy and survey the state of the art in IoT security research, and offer a roadmap of concrete research challenges to address existing and next-generation IoT security threats.
