Internet of Things Security Methods and Techniques (Paperback)

Paperback. In the contemporary world, technology has taken on a central role, profoundly transforming the way we live, work, and interact. Among the most significant innovations of recent decades, the Internet of Things (IoT) has revolutionized numerous sectors by creating an ecosystem of smart devices capable of communicating with each other and interacting with their surroundings. This transformation, while bringing countless advantages and opportunities, has also raised crucial issues regarding security and privacy.This volume aims to thoroughly explore IoT technology, addressing not only its applications and benefits but also the challenges it poses in terms of data security and protection against cyber threats. The growing reliance on these systems makes it essential to gain a deep understanding of the associated risks and the measures needed to mitigate them.The text is structured into three main chapters. In the first chapter, we will analyze the evolution of IoT technology, illustrating how it has influenced various fields of application and contributed to simplifying and speeding up our daily lives. Some of the most representative IoT systems will be examined, highlighting their operation and interactions with other emerging technologies such as 5G and satellite networks.The second chapter is dedicated to the issues related to security in IoT systems. In this section, we will examine the main threats looming over these systems, the current security mechanisms in use, and the vulnerabilities that undermine their integrity. We will particularly analyze the layered architecture of IoT systems, highlighting the specific risks associated with each layer and discussing the protocols and technologies adopted to protect data and ensure secure communications.Finally, in the third chapter, we will focus on solutions and future challenges in the field of IoT security. We will discuss the most innovative proposals to improve the protection of devices and data, exploring integrated approaches that combine advanced mechanisms and protocols to create a secure and resilient IoT ecosystem.The goal of this book is to provide a comprehensive overview of the potential and risks associated with IoT technology, with particular attention to security strategies. It is aimed not only at industry experts but also at those who wish to better understand the dynamics of this continuously evolving technology. In the increasingly connected world in which we live, IoT security will be a fundamental pillar for the success of future innovations, and awareness of these issues is essential for anyone wishing to take part in this technological revolution.
