IoT Security & Strategy (IS)

Secure and protect Internet of Things (IoT) devices and networks

What is IoT Security?

IoT security is the protection of Internet of Things (IoT) devices and networks from cyber threats and vulnerabilities. It involves implementing security measures to safeguard connected devices, data, and communications.

With the rapid growth of IoT devices in homes, businesses, and industrial settings, ensuring robust security has become critical to prevent unauthorized access, data breaches, and potential harm to users.

Why is IoT Security Important?

IoT devices often lack built-in security features and can serve as entry points for cyber attacks. Many devices collect sensitive data and control critical systems, making them attractive targets for hackers.

Perception Layer

The Perception Layer is also known as the "Sensors" layer in IoT. The purpose of this layer is to acquire the data from the environment with the help of sensors and actuators. This layer detects, collects, and processes information and then transmits it to the network layer. This layer also performs the IoT node collaboration in local and short-range networks.

Network Layer

The Network Layer of IoT serves the function of data routing and transmission to different IoT hubs and devices over the Internet. At this layer, cloud computing platforms, Internet gateways, switching, and routing devices etc. operate by using some of the very recent technologies such as Wi-Fi, LTE, Bluetooth, 4G or 5G etc. The network gateways serve as the mediator between different IoT nodes by aggregating, filtering, and transmitting data to and from different sensors.

Application Layer

The Application Layer guarantees the authenticity, integrity, and confidentiality of the data. At this layer, the purpose of IoT or the creation of a smart environment is achieved.
