Abstract
From the last two decades, Internet-of-Things (IoT) has been used in most industries for
netter performance and growth. It reduces failure rates in the various fields using user’s
experience and resilience about different services. In addition, edge computing, based IoT will
make huge impacts on IoT applications. This paper will provide an overview edge computing in
the IoT infrastructure as well as other IoT applications. It conducts critical research on the
security and privacy of data, which was collected by the IoT devices. Besides, edge computing
will improve the performance and efficiency of the whole systems with high level of security and
privacy of data and information in various IoT applications, including smart cities, smart
transportation, smart grid, and many more. This paper will include all the parameters, which has
related to real-world applications. Thus, Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) can use for the security
and privacy of data and information. It will also increase the response time of the IoT
applications. This paper will analyse the basic need of security and privacy of data as well as
transmission of information. However, security and privacy issues will face by most of the
applications. There are some various encryption and decryptions methods available for security
and privacy of the data, which can be used for more security of devices and their data. Edge
computing provides better security of the data. In addition, this paper will provide different level
of security at various layers, such as application, communication, and actuator layer. CPS will
helpful in the security and privacy of the data from various types of security attacks, such as
malware, viruses, and many more.
