A Survey: Review of
Cloud IoT Security
Techniques, Issues and
Challenges

Introduction:
• IoT devices are very much important in the daily life of the
humans.
• Cloud systems can provide remote data access to the users.
• Cloud and the IoT device are facing security related issues.

Cloud Computing in
IoT:
• IoT generates vast amount of data during its operational phase.
• These data need to be stored efficiently in the IoT infrastructure.
• Cloud computing services can effectively store all of these data
generated by the ioT system.
• Proper functionality of the IoT is ensured through cloud computing.

Applications of Cloud
IoT:• Used in the industrial sector for a connected and flexible processes.
• Cloud IoT is used in healthcare for monitoring health of the patients.
• IoT systems are capable of improving the educational sector by
implementing smart education system.
• IoT provides real-time tracking of the vehicles which is very much
useful in the transportation industry.

Cloud and IoT Security
Problems:
• Updates of the firmware is nearly impossible after it is being
installed.
• Achieving secure communication in cloud IoT is very much difficult.
• Ensuring data privacy and integrity is challenging is very much
challenging in cloud IoT environment.
• Management of the vulnerabilities in the cloud IoT system is also
problematic.

Principles of Cloud IoT
Security:• Open types of port must be avoided in IoT infrastructure.
• Communications among all the IoT devices must be encrypted.
• Network segmentation of the cloud need to be secured.
• Multi factor authentication need to be implemented for the cloud IoT
security.
• Dependencies for the known vulnerabilities must be monitored actively.

Importance of Cloud and IoT
Security:
• Business services that uses IoT system remains functional.
• Data security in the online platform is ensured.
• Remote works can be managed easily.
• Disaster recovery can be ensured.
• Different of access levels can be created.
