IoT Security: Risks and Mitigation Techniques

Internet of things
(IoT) Security

Introduction
O The term IoT is defined as the internet
of thing which is an ecosystem of
linked physical devices which are
accessible by using the internet.
O It is a type of system which is used for
interconnecting computing devices
with each other.
O The aim of this presentation is to
explore the security issues linked to IoT
and evaluate the mitigation
techniques.
O IoT plays an important part in the field
of computer networks where it helps
consumers for controlling devices from
any location (Ashraf, and Habaebi,
2015).

Background
O This study mainly focuses on the security threats
occurred on the internet of thing.
O It is identified that security and privacy of data
both are very common problems associated with
IoT devices.
O Generally, IoT uses internet connectivity for
exchanging information which also increases
several security risks in IoT such as data breach,
DOS attack, malware attack and so on.
O All these attacks and issues will be discussed in
this presentation and identify the risk factors
linked with IoT technology.
