Abstract
Internet of Things (IoT) are an extensive smart device networked ecosystem, which routinely exchange log data and information over the Internet with portals and humans. Given the considerable expansion and acceptance of IoT as enabling technology paradigm, in recent years, IoT devices face critical safety issues and threats to online data security. This chapter reviews and examines the security of the devices networked in smart intelligent homes, health care, and transport domains. Improper or unauthorized access of the IoT devices causes availability issues leading to widespread risks and downtimes. The authors present security attack-related taxonomy for the IoT devices, the focus is to assist IoT device designers and developers to better understand the risks and threats of security failures and help to integrate stronger safeguards in the IoT devices. A use-case scenario is also discussed related to design and implementation of a smart, secure vehicular traffic control using IoT devices.
