Abstract
Internet of Things (IoT) is the unification of digital/technical world with the real world and its applications, enabling the ease of communication between people, devices, processes, and objects present in the surroundings. IoT is the newest technological modernization with the ability to boost efficiency, enhance environmental sustainability, and upgrade security covering numerous evolving domains as well as assist in smoothing the everyday task and activities. The IoT researches accomplished till date certify the enormous progress in the field of Internet of Things. IoT applications are progressively fabricating their existence in nearly every sector surrounding humans. Few of the omnipresent applications of IoT are smart homes and city, smart health care, hi-tech wearable’s, and smart agriculture which are further elaborated in the survey. This survey paper presents an exhaustive description of applications of IoT, with the possible vulnerabilities and attacks on numerous IoT applications. Thus, the study also includes the mitigation methods to prevents these attacks and attain trustworthy and reliable IoT applications.
