Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) has demonstrated significant potential due to its scalability and agility. As such, it has become increasingly popular and has attracted significant attention from researchers, scholars and innovators alike. The vast amount of interconnected sensors that surround us allow data to be collected, transmitted, stored, aggregated, and shared. However, this data is extremely valuable to those with malicious intent, and collecting and sharing data in the IoT environment is becoming increasingly risky. In recent years, some distinct privacy and security concerns have arisen in relation to the increasing popularity of the IOT. These concerns are not limited to privacy and security values alone, but include issues relating to trust in information security. This chapter takes a detailed look at the privacy and security threats that can arise from the use of IoT services and how they can be potentially overcome.
