Abstract

Internet of Things (IoT) is a group of self-contained objects, which is a brand-new pattern that incorporates the current existence of various devices. It is one of the most recent technologies that offer worldwide connectivity, user, sensor, and information management. Devices can become ubiquitously connected, thanks to connectivity. IoT has a number of problems, including fading, energy use, data security, network security, etc. Security emerges as one of the biggest issues among these. In this paper, a survey on IoT security solutions is presented to illustrate the various IoT security procedures. The security protocols that are divided into four categories based on technologies used to provide security such as machine learning, trust, blockchain, and cryptography have been elaborated. The major purpose of these protocols is to address the issue of network routing assaults in IoT. Each protocol’s benefits and drawbacks are examined together with the performance indicators that were used.
