Security in smart homes based on internet of things technology

Abstract

The increasing adoption of smart home technology based on the internet of things (iot) has transformed the way we live, offering greater convenience, energy efficiency, and comfort. However, the security of smart homes remains a significant concern, with the potential for iot devices to be hacked and compromised. This paper explores the security challenges posed by smart homes based on iot technology, and examines the strategies and technologies that can be used to mitigate these risks. We discuss the importance of securing smart home devices and networks, including the need for strong passwords, firewalls, and encryption. We also explore the role of machine learning and artificial intelligence in detecting and preventing cyber threats in smart homes. Moreover, we discuss the importance of user education and awareness in maintaining the security of smart homes, including the need for users to be aware of the risks and to take steps to secure their devices and networks. We also examine the role of regulatory frameworks and standards in promoting the security of smart homes, and the need for collaboration between industry, government, and consumers to address security risks and ensure the safety of smart home technology.
