The internet of things (IoT) concept has recently received a lot of attention in the IT industry. It makes it easier to share data and connect to the internet. Smart surveillance, environmental monitoring, smartphones, and body sensors all make use of the internet of things (IoT). However, serious new threats to consumers' safety and privacy have emerged as a result of the internet of things' rapid growth. Due to the millions of IoT devices that are at risk, an attacker could quickly hack into an application, render it unreliable, and steal valuable user data and information. Both the architecture of the internet of things and the many forms of cyberattacks on these devices are examined in this chapter. It aims to advance IoT research by shedding light on the numerous security issues IoT is currently facing and the available security solutions we can use to make IoT devices safer. To uncover appropriate security solutions for securing IoT devices, the authors analyse them in this research across three categories: secure authentication, secure communications, and application security.
