Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) is becoming a pervasive technology entangled in everyday life. The objective of IoT is to provide ubiquitous access to numerous devices and machines on service providers. However, IoT-based devices may expose a user to various privacy and security threats. Privacy-preservation techniques focus on securing any type of data transfer between different parties. We aim to deliver the current state of the art in terms of privacy-preservation techniques used for IoT devices that have been discussed in the literature. Therefore, we carried out a systematic identification of the privacy-preservation techniques for IoT devices that have been described in the cybersecurity domain. To do so, we followed rigorous guidelines to define our research protocol to increase the repeatability and reliability of our results. A set of ten research questions was created to drive the analysis of our study. This research work comprehensively analyzes and discusses the privacy-preservation techniques for IoT devices published in five different academic venues. We identified 260 studies, mostly published between 2017 and 2021, that were systematically selected from an initial set of 1394 papers. The most active research areas in privacy-preservation techniques for IoT devices discuss cryptography techniques to improve the authentication process to access IoT devices. The majority of authors presented privacy-preservation techniques for IoT that involved inventory privacy thr…

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
