A Strategic Approach to IoT Security by Working Towards a Secure IoT Future

Abstract

The internet of things' (IoT) fast-growing development and adoption are undeniable. Although the IoT development is moving at a fast rate, the security of these technologies is not keeping up. Lack of security infrastructure on the internet of things is due to such security measures being excluded from the average company business plan and the lack of security configurations established. The increasing need for robust security architecture is needed to address said vulnerabilities. How do the internet of things companies create a dynamic security approach to defend and combat threats while also being flexible to accommodate future technological advancements? This paper will answer this question by addressing the strategic approach to developing a strong IoT security infrastructure that promotes confidentiality, integrity, and availability with dynamic elements that allow for future developments to address new security concerns. This research question will be answered through analysis of extensive thematic literature review.
