Abstract

Internet of Things (IoT) is rapidly developing and
glamorous technology in which machines and devices are connected and interacted
with each other via Internet anywhere anytime. This technology, which brings
advantages, facilities and efficiency in many areas from city management to
smart buildings, from health-care to industry, from energy to agriculture, etc.
has also brought along numerous challenges in terms of security. IoT is vulnerable
to various types of attacks, malfunctions and misuses due to these challenges
reasoning such as resource limitations, heterogeneity, lack of standardization,
mobility, architecture. In this paper, we present the state of the art for cyber
security issues in IoT. We provide a comparison for IoT security in different
perspectives including threats, vulnerabilities and some countermeasures. We
give some recommendations on the precautions and countermeasures for cyber
security issues in IoT.

IoT Çağında Güvenlik Tehditleri ve Çözümleri Üzerine Bir Araştırma

Abstract

Nesnelerin İnterneti (IoT)
makine ve cihazların birbirleriyle her yerde ve her zaman internet üzerinden
birbirleriyle bağlantılı ve etkileşimli olduğu, hızla gelişmekte olan göz alıcı
bir teknolojidir. Şehir yönetiminden akıllı binalara, sağlık sektöründen
sanayiye, enerjiden tarıma vb. birçok alanda avantajlar, kolaylıklar ve
verimlilik sağlayan bu teknoloji, güvenlik açısından da birçok zorluğu
beraberinde getirmiştir. IoT, kaynak kısıtlamaları, çeşitlilik, standardizasyon
eksikliği, mobilite, mimari vb. 
nedenlerden kaynaklanan zorluklardan dolayı çeşitli saldırılara, arızalara
ve kötüye kullanıma açıktır.Bu makalede, IoT siber güvenlik sorunları açısından
 en son ve en gelişmiş fikirleri sunuyoruz.
IoT güvenliği açısından tehditleri, güvenlik açıkları ve önlemleri içeren bir
karşılaştırma sağlıyoruz. Birçok siber güvenlik sorunu için tedbirler ve
önlemler konusunda bazı öneriler veriyoruz.

Keywords
