Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) is rapidly transforming various industries by enhancing the human quality of life (QoL) through its wide-ranging applications. From healthcare to automotive, agriculture, education, and numerous other sectors, IoT has become essential for enabling smarter, more efficient systems. However, with its heterogeneous nature, IoT introduces a multitude of security challenges, as different IoT applications often function under varying frameworks and protocols. Consequently, addressing and studying IoT security concerns is crucial to ensure the safe and reliable deployment of IoT solutions. This paper explores the security challenges faced by IoT systems, identifying current vulnerabilities, and providing insight into the limitations and fundamental requirements for securing these systems. Moreover, it presents both existing and emerging solutions to these challenges, aimed at protecting IoT infrastructure from potential threats. By categorizing IoT security concerns according to the three-tiered architecture of IoT (perception, network, and application layers), this study offers a comprehensive approach to understanding the distinct security requirements at each level. The goal is to equip researchers and developers with the knowledge necessary to identify and implement the best practices for mitigating security risks in IoT environments. Through this structured overview, the study highlights how appropriate security measures can be adopted to ensure that IoT continues to evolve while maintaining the highest security standards.
