Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a technology based on a network of physical objects, devices, vehicles, buildings, and more which are comprised of such systems as electronics, software, and sensors. This type of internet connects physical devices through RFID labels, sensors, and smart objects. The IoT is faced with many challenges including data security, privacy maintenance, data quality and trust, which requires mechanisms such as integrity, authentication, access control and confidentiality. First, this paper examines the security aspects of IoT, then it investigates the security infrastructure provided for this kind of internet. Studies have shown that most of the infrastructures make use of cryptographic algorithms, authentication techniques, and data-hashing. According to the findings, authentication and encryption factors are very effective in increasing the security of IoT equipment. If authentication works correctly only authorized users can access the Internet space, the data, and the sensors. The key is used to encrypt and decrypt data. The Internet of Things and its security challenges are examined in this study. According to the literature, various algorithms such as RSA and elliptic curve encryption have been used to encrypt data in security infrastructure.
