Internet of Things (IoT): An Overview of Applications and Security Issues Regarding Implementation

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a powerful paradigm that has made progress in the almost every field of human life. This paper gives an overview of IoT, its enabling technologies, applications and security issues in the wireless technologies. IoT is enabled by a number of different technologies such as Radio Frequency Identifiers (RFID), and Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN). There are huge number of applications of IoT in almost every aspect of life i.e. healthcare, logistics and supply chain management, smart environment and social application etc. only a few of these applications are discussed in this paper. Security is an important concern of wireless networks and so it is one of the main issues in IoT. This paper gives an overview of the few of many security concerns in an IoT system and methods to prevent those issues.
