An Empirical Investigation of Securing Internet of Things Data in Wireless Sensor Network

Internet of things (IoT) is an emerging technology which can interconnect low-cost and on-demand processing resources and enabling them for transmission. They are becoming viable solutions to many challenging problems such as in environmental monitoring, business, and military applications. However, deploying without security in mind has often proved to be unreasonably dangerous. This also applies to wireless sensor network (WSN) that monitor sensitive information. The development of WSN consists of sensors to monitor IoT devices. Even the IoT technology offers a variety of services, security issues concern with devices and customers is a major problem. To handle such sensitive situations and to ensure proper data security, wireless sensor network come up with the extensive use of various methods that can bring unique security concern for customers and also provide methods to prevent various possible security attacks. For this paper, huge potential efforts are made to analyze various data security methods of IoT technology in wireless sensor networks by providing as much information possible and quantifying what the tradeoffs will be.
