As domestic Internet of Things (DIoT) devices become more popular, the number of devices connected to the Internet increases. It may also represent a risk to the end-user’s security and privacy. The infected devices can be used in DIoT botnets affecting the Internet’s stability. Although there are efforts to enhance IoT security, such as RFC 8520, there still needs for improvements in the DIoT context. To ensure DIoT security, this paper proposes INXU, an extension of RFC 8520 that enables blocking traffic related to well-known malicious activities. INXU introduces the concept of Malicious Traffic Description, a data model to describe traffic related to malicious activities, and enables Security Operation Centers to protect domestic networks.

The Internet Of Things

The Internet of Things (IoT) has been growing to market from the past several years with great potential. Many several devices have been now available in the market based on IoT, which enables it to connect with your smart phones or with any other kind of smart resources, and then that device is ready to perform smart work via the Internet. With the help of IoT, we are now able to make our devices connect with the internet and then can be operated from anywhere from the geo location as well as it can store and retrieve a large amount of data for better communication between the end-user and the device. IoT also has a wide range of applications that are being used on many platforms. However, this great technology also has to face many problems and among all the problems the main issue arises with its security aspects. The major concern on using IoT security is the hacker wants to enter into the large network system using a particular device as all the devices are connected over the network. Not only this, many other security threats and malware are also a major concern in IoT. So taking these security aspects as a major concern this research paper reviews several security issues and challenges that occur in IoT. As there in every field when it comes to cyber security for any kind of data, we need to follow CIA Security Triangle i.e., Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability of data. CIA security triangle is the most important concept in terms of security and also must be taken into consideration in the IoT domain. Therefore, considering all these facts and reviewing some of the latest documents as well as researches in the field of IoT, this paper has been based on all the facts related to IoT security issues and its desirable solution which is needed to be done and should follow the security triangle to an extent.

The concept of the Internet of Things (IoT) has evolved over time. The introduction of the Internet of Things and Services into the manufacturing environment has ushered in a fourth industrial revolution: Industry 4.0. It is no doubt that the world is undergoing constant transformations that somehow change the trajectory and history of humanity. We can illustrate this with the first and second industrial revolutions and the information revolution. IoT is a paradigm based on the internet that comprises many interconnected technologies like RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) and WSAN (Wireless Sensor and Actor Networks) to exchange information. The current needs for better control, monitoring and management in many areas, and the ongoing research in this field, have originated the appearance and creation of multiple systems like smart-home, smart-city and smart-grid. The IoT services can have centralized or distributed architecture. The centralized approach provides is where central entities acquire, process, and provide information while the distributed architectures, is where entities at the edge of the network exchange information and collaborate with each other in a dynamic way. To understand the two approaches, it is necessary to know its advantages and disadvantages especially in terms of security and privacy issues. This paper shows that the distributed approach has various challenges that need to be solved. But also, various interesting properties and strengths. In this paper we present the main research challenges and the existing solutions in the field of IoT security, identifying open issues, the industrial revolution and suggesting some hints for future research.
