Abstract

The abstract should summarize the contents of the paper in short terms, i.e. 150–250 words. Automation in sensor-based network has made Internet of Things (IoTs) a reality. From wearable gadgets, smart homes, smart city, industrial internet, connected car, connected health, smart retail down to smart farming, IoT plays a major role at present. This drastic development now met with security issues such as privacy, infrastructure, leakage of information, loss of security services etc and is a major challenges. In this communication, we have surveyed literature to understand various security issues of IoT and the immediate challenges to be addressed to overcome security issues. Different factors like mobility, scalability, resource limitation etc. are considered for analyzing IoT security and current researchers can identify some open research problems and meet the challenges to promote IoT further.
