The potential capabilities of Internet of Things (IoT) can reduce a lot of time
and expenditure of various organizations. These devices are excellent data
collectors and sensors; therefore, they can help in efficient decision-making
in a wide range of applications. However, security remains the biggest issue in
the IoT domain. A lot of research is being carried out in this area to provide
strong security and privacy mechanisms in IoT networks. The development
of standards and protocol sets is necessary to build the IoT network properly.
Only time will ultimately tell how far IoT will reach and how it will reshape
the world. However, by the planned integration of existing technologies, we
can make IoT networks secure and more efficient. We address various issues in
securing IoT networks, which enabled us to develop various mutual authentication
protocols that strengthen the security and privacy of IoT devices and prevent
confidential data from theft. The present scenario of IoT research is mainly
focused on the development of technologies for its implementation. By examining
the recent statistics and literature, it also uncovers various challenges
that have the potential to prevent IoT from growing to its full potential.
