Abstract
The concept of the Internet of Things is defined by the desire to connect everything to everything at
any time (IoT). The Internet of Things (IoT) idea encompasses not just enabling connectivity but also
permitting interaction between these connected objects. Though the term "internet of things" was
coined in 1999, it has received a lot of attention in recent years. The rate at which new gadgets are
integrated into the system will have a significant positive impact on the world, but it will also pose
substantial security and privacy risks.
In its current state, IoT is vulnerable to a wide range of threats. Because data is exposed to a variety
of attacks by attackers at each tier of IoT, one of the most pressing challenges of IoT is to provide
security assurance for data flow. The Internet of Things is organized in layers, with each layer
providing a service. Because each layer serves a particular purpose, the security requirements change
from one another. This paper is to examine the numerous security and privacy issues associated with
IoT. The paper briefly describes a number of existing security mechanisms that operate at various
layers.
