Enabling Security as a Service for IoT Emerging Technologies: A Survey

Internet of things (IoT) is one of the long-run technologies that spread widely in recent years. IoT aims to connect any object with the internet depending on a special architecture made to match with the environment and the application designed for. The architecture contains sensing elements to collect data, computing elements to process data and make decisions, actuators to apply the process, in addition to the storage part. The prevalence of smart devices and easy access to the Internet increases the widespread use of IoT technology and the different applications of it require providing a high-quality service. One of the challenges facing the IoT applications is to provide security as a service. Security as a service for IoT can be provided by integrating one or more of the emerging technologies with the Internet of things applications to obtain high security according to the application. Therefore, in this study we presented a review of the recent findings and solutions of researchers in the field of developing security for IoT applications by enabling one or more of the emerging technologies.
