THE RISE OF INTERNET OF THING AND THE RISK OF THREATS

Abstract

World Wide Web has become a global driver in the information sharing from the users. Internet has changed a lot during its lifetime. The change is continuing with the rise of new technologies as well. The low cost wireless connections are making the information sharing even more persistent. Data collection has become more advanced with embedded devices connected with each other and RIFD technology used to transmit data in a continuous way. Exactly these technologies has led to the “Internet of Things” that is a way to display web as a medium of connected devices through the world and to communicate with each other. IoT has also faced a lot of challenges, especially when it comes to Enterprise IoT. Techniques for implementing IoT need to be developed especially in developing countries. The challenges and threats of the IoT are described in this paper. An initial security evaluation is also shown.
