Securing the Internet of Things: A Comprehensive Overview of IoT Security Mechanisms

The increasing prevalence of Internet of Things (IoT) devices in various domains underscores the necessity for robust security mechanisms to mitigate the evolving landscape of cyber threats. This abstract provides a concise overview of the comprehensive study on IoT secure mechanisms. The interconnected nature of IoT introduces unique challenges stemming from the heterogeneity of devices, diverse communication protocols, and often resource-constrained environments. This research delves into the current state of IoT security, emphasizing the critical importance of safeguarding data integrity, user privacy, and the overall functionality of IoT ecosystems. The study explores a spectrum of security mechanisms designed to fortify IoT deployments against unauthorized access, data breaches, and malicious activities. Techniques such as device authentication, secure communication protocols, and encryption methods are analysed in-depth to understand their applicability and effectiveness in diverse IoT scenarios. Acknowledging the dynamic nature of IoT, this research assesses the state-of-the-art advancements in secure mechanisms, considering both theoretical frameworks and practical implementations. Through a thorough examination of the challenges posed by emerging cyber threats, the article contributes to the ongoing discourse on bolstering the security posture of IoT systems.
