Internet of Things (IoT) applications security trends and challenges

The idea behind layered design is the foundation of the Internet of Things. Each tier uses a variety of technologies for capacity, preparation, and information transmission. With regard to the risks and vulnerabilities related to IoT-enabled devices, as well as potential assurance mechanisms in light of equipment constraints and novel information transfer techniques, this study attempts to analyze the current architecture of the Internet of Things. After that, we talk about IoT architecture and applications. The following is a list of effective real-time IoT applications that are now in use: Self-driving cars, traffic management systems, smart grids, logistic management hierarchies, environment monitoring, building safety applications, and many more are examples of emerging technologies. Specifically, we highlight the latest improvements and challenges associated with IoT security. Finally, we discuss the state-of-the-art research and its conclusions, as well as the outstanding problems for future IoT security research. © The Author(s) 2024.
