Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) has revolutionized various domains in computer science by enabling seamless connectivity and automation across devices. However, the integration of IoT in applications brings forth significant security and privacy concerns. This paper investigates the prevalent security and privacy issues in IoT-driven computer science applications. We review existing literature to identify common vulnerabilities and threats, propose a robust security framework to mitigate these issues, and implement the framework in a simulated environment. The results demonstrate enhanced security and privacy, addressing the critical concerns effectively. This research contributes to the development of more secure and reliable IoT applications, promoting trust and wider adoption of IoT technologies.
