A survey on Internet of Things (IoT) security : Challenges and Current statusvivatechijri
When Internet of Things (IoT) applications become a part of people’s daily life, security issues in IoT have caught substantial attention in both academia and industry. Compared to traditional computing systems, IoT systems have more inherent vulnerabilities, and in the intervening time, could have higher security requirements. However, the current design of IoT does not successfully address the higher security requirements postured by those vulnerabilities. Many recent attacks on IoT systems have shown that novel security solutions are needed to defend this emerging system. This paper purposes to examine security challenges resulted from the special characteristics of the IoT systems and the new features of the IoT applications. This could help pave the road to better security solution design. Furthermore, three architectural security designs are suggested and analyzed. Examples of how to implement these designs are discussed. Finally, for each layer in IoT architecture, open issues are also identified.

Architectural Layers of Internet of Things: Analysis of Security Threats and ...Scientific Review SR
A pervasive network architecture that interconnect heterogeneous objects, devices, technologies and services called
Internet of Things has prompted a drastic change in demand of smart devices which in turn has increased the rate of
data exchange. These smart devices are built with numerous sensors which collect information from other interacting
devices, process it and send it to remote locations for storage or further processing. Although this mechanism of data
processing and sharing has contributed immensely to the information world, it has recently posed high security risk
on privacy and data confidentiality. This paper therefore analyses different security threats to data at different
architectural layers of Internet of Things, possible countermeasures and other in-depth security measures for Internet
of Things. The paper identifies device authentication on IoT network to be of paramount impo rtance in securing IoT
systems. This paper also suggests some essential technologies of security such as encryption for securing IoT
devices and the data shared over IoT network

SECURITY& PRIVACY THREATS, ATTACKS AND COUNTERMEASURES IN INTERNET OF THINGSIJNSA Journal
The idea to connect everything to anything and at any point of time is what vaguely defines the concept of the Internet of Things (IoT). The IoT is not only about providing connectivity but also facilitating interaction among these connected things. Though the term IoT was introduced in 1999 but has drawn significant attention during the past few years, the pace at which new devices are being integrated into the system will profoundly impact the world in a good way but also poses some severe queries about security and privacy. IoT in its current form is susceptible to a multitudinous set of attacks. One of the most significant concerns of IoT is to provide security assurance for the data exchange because data is vulnerable to some attacks by the attackers at each layer of IoT. The IoT has a layered structure where each layer provides a service. The security needs vary from layer to layer as each layer serves a different purpose. This paper aims to analyze the various security and privacy threats related to IoT. Some attacks have been discussed along with some existing and proposed countermeasures.

DEEP LEARNING FOR SMART GRID INTRUSION DETECTION: A HYBRID CNN-LSTM-BASED MODELgerogepatton
As digital technology becomes more deeply embedded in power systems, protecting the communication
networks of Smart Grids (SG) has emerged as a critical concern. Distributed Network Protocol 3 (DNP3)
represents a multi-tiered application layer protocol extensively utilized in Supervisory Control and Data
Acquisition (SCADA)-based smart grids to facilitate real-time data gathering and control functionalities.
Robust Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are necessary for early threat detection and mitigation because
of the interconnection of these networks, which makes them vulnerable to a variety of cyberattacks. To
solve this issue, this paper develops a hybrid Deep Learning (DL) model specifically designed for intrusion
detection in smart grids. The proposed approach is a combination of the Convolutional Neural Network
(CNN) and the Long-Short-Term Memory algorithms (LSTM). We employed a recent intrusion detection
dataset (DNP3), which focuses on unauthorized commands and Denial of Service (DoS) cyberattacks, to
train and test our model. The results of our experiments show that our CNN-LSTM method is much better
at finding smart grid intrusions than other deep learning algorithms used for classification. In addition,
our proposed approach improves accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score, achieving a high detection
accuracy rate of 99.50%.

Abstract— IoT (Internet of Things) expands the future
Internet, and has drawn much attention. As more and more
gadgets (i.e. Things) connected to the Internet, the huge
amount of data exchanged has reached an unprecedented
level.IoT today has a wide scope and researches say that IoT
will definitely be a huge reason in the change of human
lifestyle. But irrespective of the scope of IoT, we cannot be
sure enough to implement it due to the security concerns.
There is a genuine need to secure IoT, which has therefore
resulted in a need to comprehensively understand the threats
and attacks on IoT infrastructure. This paper discusses about
the flaws in the security structure of IoT, it is a study about
the various layers of IoT and how differentattacks are
possible in those layers.
Keywords— Internet of Thing (IoT), Denial of Service
(DOS), Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), Data
Distribution Services (DDS), Data Centre (DC).
I. INTRODUCTION
Internet can be defined as a bunch of connected items,
network technologies, sensing and gateway devices,
endpoints, data analysis systems/approaches, protocols and
standards including the Internet Protocol (IP). Internet of
Things can be defined as the Interconnectivity of devices
which are physical. The Internet of Things enables a smarter
bridging of digital, physical and human spheres by adding
data capture and communication capacities to objects in a
secure way to a networked environment. Internets of Things
allow objects to be interconnected and are controlled on
remote using networking.According to Gartner “The Internet
of Things (IoT) is the network of physical objects that
contain embedded technology to communicate and sense or
interact with their internal states or the external
environment”.
The IoT is comprised of the three core components: A
collection of smart, connected products, product systems, and
other Things connected through an Internet-like
communication infrastructure to a computing infrastructure
that are creating new forms of value. Data from the product
condition, operation, and environment are delivered in real-
time enabling capabilities to control, service, and upgrade the
product and system performance. For manufacturers (i.e.,
those in the Things business), these innovations not only
have the potential to generate incredible amounts of new
value, but also to disrupt the status quo.
We live in a smart, connected world. The number of things
connected to the Internet now exceeds the total number of
humans on the planet, and we’re accelerating to as many as
50 billion connected devices soon.
The rise of the IoT has been driven by the convergence of
market forces and parallel innovation of enabling
technologies. Products have evolved from purely physical
components to complex systems combining processors,
sensors, software, and digital user interfaces that are now
connected to the Internet and each other. As their definition
has evolved, product capabilities have multiplied, creating
new forms of value and even doing things well beyond their
primary function.
The impact is a fundamental transformation of how
manufacturers create and exchange value with customers.
This transformation is shifting the sources of value and
differentiation to software, the cloud, and service, and
spawning entirely new business models. To capture this great
wave of value creation opportunity, manufacturers have an
urgent need to rethink nearly everything — from how
products are created, sold, operated, and serviced.
IoT incorporates everything in itself such as body sensor or
cloud computing [2]. No matter its parking your vehicle, or
it’s a detail of a patient, or your wrist watch that reminds you
to take your medicine, or a device that track you activity
around [3]. We are today living in the ocean of IoT where
every physical device is interrelated. The key element in IoT
is the sensors.
1.1. The major contributors of IOT are:
RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) : RFID
tracks the data and helps to find the things and the
related information.
Sensors: In things when some physical change is
detected, sensors collect that data and process it
further.

Smart technologies: The smart Technologies
develop some of the processing capabilities and then
it can also modify the capacity of networks.
Nano technologies: Nano technologies are the
smallest unit that can be used to interconnect the
things using IoT.
1.2. IoT requires five phases:
Fig.1: Five phases of IoT
Phase 1: Data collection, acquisition, perception
Firstly, we assemble and retrieve various kind of Information
from things or devices. After this some of the important
factors are examined and is preceded by the collection of
data. The things that can be used in the data collection can be
a static body or it can also be a dynamic vehicle.
Phase 2: Storage
All the data that has been collected in phase 1 is allocated to
the memory locations and as we know that generally all the
components of IoT are stored in small memories and usesthe
cloud computing. Due to the low memory all kinds of data
storage in the stateless devices is done in the form of cloud.
Phase 3: Intelligent processing.
The data stored in the cloud is analyzed and is provided with
the intelligent processing for real time. And then IoT
becomes capable of controlling things
Phase 4: Data Transmission.
We can say that data transmission is a part in all of the above
phases;Data is transmitted from various kinds of sensors, and
the different RFID tags or chips to the DCs. And then the
data is transmitted from DCs to the processing unit.From
processors the data is transmitted to the controllers and the
end users.
Phase 5: Delivery.
All the delivery of information and data from the processors,
processors to controllers and end user is completed in the
delivery phase.
II. THREATS & ATTACKS IN IoT
Cyber threats could be launched against any IoT assets and
facilities, potentially causing damage or disabling system
operation, endangering the general populace or causing
severe economic damage to owners and users [9, 10].
Examples include attacks on home automation systems and
taking control of heating systems, air conditioning, lighting
and physical security systems. The information collected
from sensors embedded in heating or lighting systems could
inform the intruder when somebody is at home or out.
Among other things, cyber-attacks could be launched against
any public infrastructure like utility systems (power systems
or water treatment plants) [11] to stop water or electricity
supply to inhabitants.
Security and privacy issues are a growing concern for users
and suppliers in their shift towards the IoT [12]. Data
Integrity, Data vulnerability & Data confidentiality must be
kept in mind when we study anything related to the security
issues of internet. A Threat can be defined as a possible
danger that might exploit a vulnerability to beach security &
therefore cause problem. Thus we can say that due to the
evolution of threats security needs to be increased and steps
must be taken to prevent various threats & attacks[1].
The attacks can be classified into three parts
2.1. Phase attack
Phase attack Phase attack deals with the variety of
attacks that are on the layers that we have already
discussed.
Data Leakage is an activity done by a dishonest
person; it can be internal i.e. within the organization
or external.
Data leakage is international & may be authorized
or malicious.
Data Sovereignty says that all the information
should be a part of the laws of the country
Data Loss can also be one of the attacks of phase
attack, Data loss or loss of information or data due
to a failure in the software or hardware.
Data Authentication provides integrity & originality
to our data.
Modification of Sensitive Data During transmission
of data this may happen that the data is modified
and sent to the end node

2.2. Attacks as per architecture
Well defined IoT architecture is not established properly yet.
However, a three-layerhigh level architecture is commonly
accepted [13]. This architecture consists ofthree layers:
Perception Layer
Network Layer
Application layer
A brief description of each layer is given[14]:
2.2.1. Perception Layer: the main task of the
perception layer is to perceive the physical
properties of things around us that are part of
the IoT. This processof perception is based on
several sensing technologies (e.g. RFID, WSN,
GPS,NFC, etc.). In addition, this layer is in
charge of converting the information todigital
signals, which are more convenient for network
transmission.
2.2.2. Network Layer: the network layer is
responsible for processing the received data
from the Perception Layer. In addition, it is in
charge of transmitting data to the application
layer through various network technologies,
suchas wireless/wired networks and Local Area
Networks (LAN). The main mediafor
transmission include FTTx, 3G/4G, Wifi,
bluetooth, Zigbee, UMB, infrared technology,
and so on. Huge quantities of data will be
carried by the network.Hence, it is crucial to
provide a sound middleware to store and
process thismassive amount of data. To reach
this goal, cloud computing is the
primarytechnology in this layer.
2.2.3. Application Layer: the application layer uses
the processed data by the previous Layer. In
fact, this layer constitutes the front end of the
whole IoTarchitecture through which IoT
potential will be exploited. Moreover, this
layerprovides the required tools (e.g. actuating
devices) for developpers to realize theIoT
vision. The range of possible applications is
intelligent transportation, logistics
management, identity authentication, location
based services, safety, etc.
Fig.2: IoT layers
The possible threats that can be in these layers are.-
External attack:These external terrifying attacks come
from experienced & trained hackers. These external
hackers can find vulnerable network or socially
manipulate insiders to get past outer network defenses.
Wormhole attack: In the wormhole attack the intruder
does not capture the data, instead the intruder forwards
this data in another node and then he retransmits the data
from that node [8].
Selective forwarding attacks: In this attack the
intruder chooses some selective packets and drop them:
i.e. , they select some packets and allow the rest.
Sinkhole attack: In Sinkhole attack, for long durations
the sensors are not attended. Therefore the intruder
attacks the information and post attacks like selective
forward, fabrication, & modification.
Sewage Pool attack: In this malicious user select a
particulars region and now the intruder changes the
selected base station node so that the selective attacks
becomes less successful.
Hello flood attack: In this a Hello message will be
introduce to all the neighbor of the reachable area at a
certain frequency level. And then, this malicious node
converts itself into a neighbor for all the selected nodes
of that region and starts to broadcast. And hence a
flooding attack cause unavailability of the records by
sending huge number of unwanted messages.
Addressing All Things in Iot: In this the malicious users
implements the malicious machine to attack the virtual
machine of the user. Using this, a person can hack all the
confidential data and use the data for malicious purpose.

www.ijaems.com Page | 398
DDS: Thousands of attackers grouped together to initiate
such attacks. In this type of attack some unwanted traffic
size of huge size are populated so that they could deplete
the memory resources. And, now the some important
request is not allowed to reach the DC & thus it depletes
the bandwidth of DC. In Denial of service, the
authorized user in banished from the usage of such
services.
IP Spoof Attack: In spoofing the intruder pretends to
be someone else so that he could access some
confidential information IP spoof attacks, can be IP
address attacks, in which the attacker impersonates the
IP address of the authorized user.
There are various kinds of Spoof attack
Hiding attack
Refraction attack
Impersonation attack
GoodPut: GoodPut is the rate at which the data can be
transferred from one node to another. We can also say
that GoodPut is the ratio between the total data we are
receiving and the delivery time.
Data Center (DC’s) : A DC can be said to be a
centralized for storage purpose as well an management
purpose. A DC can be used in house computer system as
well as in large storage system.
2.3. Attacks based on Component
As we know that IOT connects everything from the internet.
Data can not only be attended, theft loss, breach or disaster
data can also be modified by some compromised sensors.
Due to this reason it is mandatory for the end user to verify
the received information.
III. SECURITY ISSUES & PRIVACY CONCERN
As we discussed from the threats we know that with the vast
use of IOT in our day to day environment, we need to find
measures for security so that we could own an IOT network
that will be effective and the one that could manage security
risk. There is immense potential in IOT but it all becomes
flamed when we see it from the security point of view, There
are some most common security issues that flaws the entire
IOT systems.
3.1. Security issues in the wireless sensor networks-
As we study about the attack on network availability we
learn that the DOS attack can affect all five layers which are
physical layer, link layer, network layer, transport layer &
application layer[6].
3.2. The DOS attacks the physical layer by-
1. Jamming- In this the intruder creates a jam between
the communicating nodes and thus prevent nodes from
communication.
2. Node Tampering - Tampering the node physically so
that some sensitive information may be tampered.
3.3. DOS (denial of service) attack at the link Layer
The data link layer in WSN multiplexes the data stream; it
detects the data frame and checks the error control. The
denial of service attack in link layer are-
1) Collision- When two data nodes transfer packets of
data at equal frequency and at the same time then
this type of DOS attack ,i.e. collision can be
initiated . Due to the collision attack small amount
of data changes that result in the mismatch of result
in the end node. Due to which the whole set of data
needs to be re-transmitted.
2) Unfairness- In unfairness, the collision attack is
repeated again and again and the data needs to be
transmitted for every collision attack.
3) Battery Exhaustion- It is similar to jamming but
battery Exhaustion attack creates high traffic due to
which end nodes become incapable of
communicating to one-another. This occurs when
there are large numbers of requests in the system.
3.4 DOS attack on the network layer
The main and the most important usage of network layer
are routing. The main DOS attack that takes place in the
network layer are-
1) Spoofing- In spoofing the intruder gains an
unauthorized access, i.e., the confidential
information is at a risk of leakage. The main reason
to spoofing can be to gain vulnerability to someone
else’s confidential data
2) Hello flood attack- In Hello flood attack, as we
have already discussed, a large amount of messages
are sent that are useless, but these messages occupy
the resources due to which two or more nodes are
unable to communicate and hence the traffic or a
Jam is created in the system.
3) Hamming- In this kind of network attack traffic is
created of cluster heads these cluster heads have a
capability to shut down the whole system and thus
the entire network.
4) Selective Forwarding- In this type of a DOS attack
only few selected nodes are send rather than all the
nodes. And the criteria of selection of node are done
as per the requirement of attacker so that this

www.ijaems.com Page | 399
malicious motive is achieved and the data packets
are not forwarded.
3.5 DOS attack on the transport layer
In this a reliable data transmission comes into action i.e. all
the congestion is avoided and all the high traffic jams and
floods are prevented[5].
The main DOS attacks on the transport layer are:-
1) Flooding: In this DOS attack a huge amount of
unnecessary message are sent so that the attackers can
successfully create congestion.
2) De Synchronization: In this DOS attack, a fake
message is created either at one or both nodes of the
system so that the retransmission can be requested for
the correction of an error that not even exists. Due to
which energy is lost at both ends and the attacker can be
successful in his malicious motive.
3.6 DOS attack on the application layer
In this the traffic management is monitored. This layer also
provides the software for application that translates data into
different forms and sends queries. In application layer a path
is based, denial of service attack is initiated so that the sensor
node can create heavy traffic and congestion is created.
IV. CONCLUSION AND FUTURE DIRECTIONS
It is a challenge to secure IoT network. IoT networks have to
worry about sophisticated attackers from both nation-states
and competitors, and the misuse from employees, and
vendors. As IoT uses network architecture which is similar to
traditional network architecture for communication among
different devices, flaws of traditional network architecture is
also inherited in it. With the development of IoT, many kinds
of attacks also have been invented to breach the security of
IoT devices. This paper discusses about the possible threats
and attacks which can arise from the application of IoT. This
paper will be of much use for researchers in the field of
securities; it will helpto identify the major problems in IoT
security and will provide better knowledge of the threats,
increase in the ethical issue, theft, and misuse of information
and privacy issues.
