The Internet of Things (IOT) is a revolution in the technology world, and this field is continuously evolving. It has made life easier for people by providing consumers with more efficient and effective resources in faster and more convenient ways. The Internet of Things is one of the most exciting fields for the future by 2030. 90% of the planet will be connected and all devices in homes and businesses around us will be connected to the Internet making it more vulnerable to violations of privacy and protection. Due to the complexity of its environment, security and privacy are the most critical issues relevant to IoT. Without the reliable security of the devices, they will lose their importance and efficiency. Moreover, the security violation will outweigh any of its benefits. In this paper, an overview of various layered IoT architectures, a review of common security attacks from the perspective of the layer, and the best techniques against these attacks are provided. Moreover, an enhanced layered IoT architecture is proposed, which will be protected against several security attacks.

There is a need to develop an effective data preservation scheme with minimal information loss when the patient’s data are shared in public interest for different research activities. Prior studies have devised different approaches for data preservation in healthcare domains; however, there is still room for improvement in the design of an elegant data preservation approach. With that motivation behind, this study has proposed a medical healthcare-IoTs-based infrastructure with restricted access. The infrastructure comprises two algorithms. The first algorithm protects the sensitivity information of a patient with quantifying minimum information loss during the anonymization process. The algorithm has also designed the access polices comprising the public access, doctor access, and the nurse access, to access the sensitivity information of a patient based on the clustering concept. The second suggested algorithm is K-anonymity privacy preservation based on local coding, which is based on cell suppression. This algorithm utilizes a mapping method to classify the data into different regions in such a manner that the data of the same group are placed in the same region. The benefit of using local coding is to restrict third-party users, such as doctors and nurses, when trying to insert incorrect values in order to access real patient data. Efficiency of the proposed algorithm is evaluated against the state-of-the-art algorithm by performing extensive simulations. Simulation results demonstrate benefits of the proposed algorithms in terms of efficient cluster formation in minimum time, minimum information loss, and execution time for data dissemination.

As all the entities are connected with each other, it generates load of data, which lacks proper security and privacy standards. Cryptography is one of the domains of Network Security, which is one such mechanism that helps the data transmission process to be secure enough over the wireless or wired channel and along with that, it provides authenticity, confidentiality, integrity of data and prevents repudiation. In this paper, we have proposed an alternate enhanced cryptographic solution combing the characteristic of symmetric, asymmetric encryption algorithms and Public Key Server. Here, the key pairs of end points (User’s Device and IoT device) are generated using Elliptic Curve Cryptography and the respective public keys are registered in Public Key Server along with their unique MAC address. Thereafter, both the ends will agree on one common private secret key, which will be the base for further cryptographic process using AES algorithm. This model can be called as multi-phase protection mechanism. It will make the process of data transmission secure enough that no intermediate can tamper the data.</span></p></div></div></div></div>
