Abstract: Wearable devices can be anything from small wrist-mounted systems to bulky backpack computers. Wearable device is a combination of devices typically a belt or backpack PC, head-mounted display, wireless hardware and some input devices. The fundamental principle of wearable device is to collect data ubiquitously and continuously, about the individual user and also their surroundings. This can pose many privacy challenges and are hindered by poor security. They are not mature yet in term of device security and privacy acceptance of the public. Low processing power of wearable device leads to developer’s inability to implement certain complicated security mechanisms and algorithms on the device. This paper analyzes various security issues and attacks on the user’s data
