DDoS Attack in IoT: Vulnerabilities and Mitigation Techniques

Author : Sanjay Kumar Gupta 1 Sandeep Vanjale 2

Date of Publication :20th March 2021

Abstract: Internet of Things (IoT) is a platform that integrates the internet with the rudimentary devices. This technology catalysts the growth of Internet-connected devices in our daily activities. This provides numerous benefits to the end user; however, it also brings with itself new challenges related to security and privacy issues. The number of devices connected along with the ad-hoc nature of the system further exacerbates the situation. Therefore, security and privacy has emerged as a significant challenge for the IoT. This research paper analyses various security aspects of IoT setup and proposes security solutions for mitigation of the concerns.
