Abstract
The wearable computing device is swiftly emerging and reaching out to people as a wide-
context technology device worldwide. These wearable devices are innovative, small captive
device with a sensor that enables in collecting information from the surrounding then process it
and then transfer it to a distant location for farther evaluation (Revadigar et al. 2016). This IoT
enhances the possibilities of new development of the social network into another level of the
internet of things. The wearable Internet of Thing device having minimal processing capability,
which enhances the user to access the ease of sharing information from to master device by
pairing it like a smartwatch, Google Glass, and many more (Yang et al. 2017). The paper throws
the light on the various types of security and its loopholes of internet of thing wearable devices
which needs immediate attention and also discussing the regulations and policies and particular
challenges concerning data privacy. The influence of such IoT wearable technology has become
crucial when the involvement of people is enhanced in such wearable computing devices.
Though such wearable technology is not developed in terms of the security of the device and the
privacy undertakings of the public (Shah, 2019). Transferring data from the IoT device to the
master system is very sensitive and might face specific cyber-security challenges.
