“…In Probabilistic key distribution, it's not guaranteed that each node in the network shares a secure key with all other nodes, but the nodes share keys with their neighbors according to some probabilities in such way we must be able to form secure paths 5 between all entities in the network. With this approach, the scalability issues are solved, but the key management protocols become less resilient in case of nodes' comprises.…”

“…Recently, Sicari et al investigated 5 path composed from a set of successive secure links a key management issue in distributed and dynamic Internet of Things environments [114]. They integrated two key management solutions (Dini et al [40] and Di Pietro et al [39] schemes) in their middleware based IoT architecture named NOS (NetwOrked Smart object) which has been designed initially as a distributed platform for data storage and processing between IoT devices that act as data sources and the users that act as services consumers [102,112].…”

Internet of Things (IoT) is one of the promising technologies that has attracted a lot of attention in both industrial and academic fields these years. It aims to integrate seamlessly both physical and digital worlds in one single ecosystem that makes up a new intelligent era of Internet. This technology offers a huge business value for organizations and provides opportunities for many existing applications such as energy, healthcare and other sectors. However, as new emergent technology, IoT suffers from several security issues which are most challenging than those from other fields regarding its complex environment and resources-constrained IoT devices. A lot of researches have been initiated in order to provide efficient security solutions in IoT, particularly to address resources constraints and scalability issues. Furthermore, some technologies related to networking and cryptocurrency fields such as Software Defined Networking (SDN) and Blockchain are revolutionizing the world of the Internet of Things thanks to their efficiency and scalability. In this paper, we provide a comprehensive top down survey of the most recent proposed security and privacy solutions in IoT. We discuss particularly the benefits that new approaches such as blockchain and Software Defined Networking can bring to the security and the privacy in IoT in terms of flexibility and scalability. Finally, we give a general classification of existing solutions and comparison based on important parameters.

“…The fourth least perceived challenge was the avoidance of malicious and unintentional security incidents involving employees, contractors and vendors (mean = 3.80). Security risks related with; verification, authorization, privacy, access to the system, applications, network, and data remain one of the main challenges for organisations when managing IoT ecosystems (Alaba et al, 2017). Thus, the human element is still considered as a constant risk of security incidents due the lack of managerial and maintenance care about access control within enterprises' ICT networks (Patel et al, 2017).…”

Purpose (mandatory) -The Internet of Things (IoT) is expected to have a huge impact on businesses and, especially, the way we think about supply chain management. However, there is still a paucity of studies on the impact of IoT adoption on supply chains and on different aspects of the business in general. The research aims to examine the impact of adoption of Internet of Things (IoT) in organizational supply chains with a view to verify potential key benefits and challenges existent in the literature. The research presents the impact on an organization along with the impact across its entire supply chain. Design/methodology/approach (mandatory) -Data was collected through the use of an online survey and 87 participants completed the survey. Participants were mainly university scholars based in different countries located in six continents.

“…So with the rapid development and a mixture of heterogeneous devices, it formulates very large scale of IoT infrastructure [5]. So it is predicted that IoT is feared to be under threats on its versatile technology and future capabilities [6]. The security threat to IoT such as Denial of Service, Brute Force, Man in the middle attacks and many other attacks are envisaged in the interconnected network.…”

Abstract-Internet of Things referred as a pervasive network architecture which provides services to the physical world by processing and analyzing data. In this modern era Internet of Things has been shown much significance and rapidly developing by connecting heterogeneous devices with various technologies. By this way interconnectivity of large number of electronic devices connected with the IoT network leads the risk of security and confidentiality of data. This paper analyzes different security issues, their counter measures and discusses the future directions of security in IoT. Furthermore, this paper also discusses essential technologies of security like encryption in the scenario of IoT for the prevention of harmful threats in the light of latest research.
