“…The "things" could interact in real-time with other things by using various devices and protocols. Its characteristics were comprehensive beyond general applications since they had no limits of time and place [4]. Guo, et al [5] presented an IoT framework which was initiated by human to build decentralized ad hoc networks for information sharing.…”

This paper presents a straightforward solution to an existing internet service so as to enhance its reliability and safety. As the internet society proliferates, myriad of applications, services, and devices are added. Variations among these "things" become unmanageably incompatible. The advent of the Internet of Things or IoT has shed some light on the interoperability issue of these hodgepodges. The proposed framework thus rests on these IoT to achieve such objectives without having to reinvent the wheel or resort to any complex cost-ridden devices and software to operate. The principle is to set up an activity framework that integrates necessary devices to support the designated functionality. This in turn runs on mobile network to serve the internet community. A case study on taxi service apps, having CCTV, GPS, and other monitoring devices and software, is conducted to gauge the viability of the proposed framework. The survey result shows that users are concerned with a few reliability and IoT connectivity factors, namely, cost, schedule, delay, number of vehicles and their proximity. The prospect is promising to broaden the proposed framework in other means of transportation.

“…Initial work on the issue by Weber (2010), examined the privacy and security problems that may arise with IoT from a legal perspective. Subsequent studies focus more on security and privacy issues that may arise with the widespread use of IoT technologies and objects have been conducted (Roman et al, 2013;Kumar and Patel, 2014;Lee and Lee, 2015;Sicari et al, 2015;Weinberg et al, 2015). In addition to these Peppet emphasizes the importance of consumer consent in the context of consumer privacy in IoT-related regulations.…”

Purpose-This study aims to examine privacy from a consumer point of view and in relation to the Internet of Things. Methodology-The concepts of Internet of Things and consumer privacy are covered in this study. These two phenomena are conceptually evaluated, and the relation between them are analyzed through applications and examples. Findings-The monitoring of people's daily activities and recording of data about these activities cause concerns about the privacy of personal data. Consumers are concerned about how and for what purpose the data collected about them is being used. Conclusion-Privacy concern can be an obstacle to consumers' adaptation to IoT technologies. Moreover, it also affects consumers' attitudes towards a particular product, brand or business. For this reason, all actors responsible for the development of the IoT must be aware of the importance of consumer privacy. These actors should show sensitivity to the protection of personal data and consumer privacy as well.

“…As location information is a major component in effective inventory and supply chains, efficient transportation systems, context-aware mobile applications, and numerous other IoT systems [6], privacy attacks and harmful consequences can occur when sensitive location information is reveled without users' consent. These pose challenges on IoT security and privacy [7][8][9].…”

Location-based Services (LBS) have become a very important area for research with the rapid development of Internet of Things (IoT) technology and the ubiquitous use of smartphones and social networks in our daily lives. Although users can enjoy a lot of flexibility and conveniences from the LBS with IoT, they may also lose their privacy. Untrusted or malicious LBS servers with all users' information can track users in various ways or release personal data to third parties. In this work, we first analyze the current dummy-location selection (DLS) algorithm-an efficient location privacy preservation approach and design an attack algorithm for DLS (ADLS) for test emerging IoT security. For efficiently preserving user's location privacy, we propose a novel dummy location privacy-preserving (DLP) algorithm by considering both computational costs and various privacy requirements of different users. Extensive simulation experiments have been carried out to evaluate the efficiency of the proposed schemes. Evaluation results show that the ADLS algorithm has a high probability of identifying the user's real location out from chosen dummy locations in the DLS algorithm. Our proposed DLP algorithm has clear advantages over the DLS algorithm in term of lower probability of revealing the user's real location and improved computational cost and efficiency (i.e., time, speed, accuracy, and complexity) while preserve the same privacy level as DLS algorithm.
