Internet of Things (IoT) devices are operating in various domains like healthcare environment, smart cities, smart homes, transportation, and smart grid system. These devices transmit a bulk of data through various sensors, actuators, transceivers, or other wearable devices. Data in the IoT environment is susceptible to many threats, attacks, and risks. Therefore, a robust security mechanism is indispensable to cope with attacks, vulnerabilities, security, and privacy challenges related to IoT. In this research, a systematic literature review has been conducted to analyze the security of IoT devices and to provide the countermeasures in response to security problems and challenges by using mobile computing. A comprehensive and in-depth security analysis of IoT devices has been made in light of mobile computing, which is a novel approach. Mobile computing's technological infrastructures such as smartphones, services, policies, strategies, and applications are employed to tackle and mitigate these potential security threats. In this paper, the security challenges and problems of IoT devices are identified by a systematic literature review. Then, mobile computing has been used to address these challenges by providing potential security measures and solutions. Hardware and software-based solutions furnished by mobile computing towards the IoT security challenges have been elaborated. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first attempt to analyze the security issues and challenges of IoT in light of mobile computing and it will open a gateway towards future research.

“…Mendes et al [16] disclosed that IoT has largely benefitted critically ill patients and the elderly population living alone who require continuous monitoring due to their diseased condition by tracking their health condition on a regular basis and allowing any disturbances or change in routine daily living activities to trigger an alarm to the family member or concerned healthcare providers for an immediate check on their condition and to provide instant care and treatment to avoid any fatalities or long-term damage [15,16]. However, Priyadharsan et al [20] projected that several potential challenges exist while designing any IoTbased healthcare system that needs to be addressed such as security and privacy, user identification and authentication, and regular communication and exchange of healthcare data before the adoption of the technology on a mass scale [14,20,27].…”

The integration of blockchain and the Internet of Things (IoT) helps to strengthen and leverage mutual advantages in a variety of industrial domains including healthcare. The healthcare industry is one of the largest and fastest-growing industries involving more than 10% of the gross domestic product (GDP) of several countries globally. The use of blockchain in IoT can help to track multiple devices in the network, avoid duplication of malicious data entries, disallow data tampering, and provide enhanced security and privacy. Several devices are connected in an IoT network for fast-paced 5G-enabled data transfer environment for different industrial applications for collecting information and processing it, and the chances of failure of this centralized system are much higher. The time required to retrieve data from different devices, existing protocols, and access control mechanism employed presently may not work in the future as they are centralized based mechanisms [1,2]. The deployment of blockchain in IoT allows distributed, decentralized ledger records with high security, privacy, improved efficiency, and authenticity of data [1,3,4].Soon, the blockchain technology would immensely benefit and revolutionize the healthcare sector by ensuring data transparency, reducing costs of service delivery,

The ultimate aim of a smart city is to enhance the quality of life for its residents and businesses through modern technologies in order to reduce resource deterioration and maintain overall costs. From this perspective, blockchain is one of these technologies that has received much attention during the recent years as it offers new alternatives for individuals and institutions in the smart city context. This study aims to explore the potential and contribution of blockchain in smart cities by studying and reviewing the literature of scientific research on the concept and fundamentals of blockchain, involving its most practical applications. In addition, it summarizes worldwide examples of success in using blockchain as well as exploring the challenges and opportunities related to this technology in smart cities. Thus, this study provides a useful reference for researchers to review all about the new blockchain technology.
