Abstract

There has been a consistent uptick in both the number of connected devices in use and the number of smart homes being built in recent years (IDATE, 20160. Smart locks, HVAC systems, and networking technologies like Zigbee and Z-Wave have all entered the market in recent years, and the number of available options has increased dramatically. This thesis serves a dual function. For starters, it provides a concise overview of the dangers facing smart homes in the near and far future from a security standpoint. Second, using this data as a starting point helps with the overall smart home security management. The contribution is a prototype of a security module designed to monitor for and alert users to any suspicious activity. In this thesis, we'll look into whether or not the smart hub is an adequate environment for this kind of mechanism in terms of its impact on system resources and the frequency with which it may be detected. Our research for this thesis has centered on creating and assessing a security system for the Internet of Things (IoT) that can reduce the risk of cyber attacks on individuals and communities.
