The main aim of this paper is to investigate the idea of identity and access control for Internet of Things applications. Organizations collect enormous amounts of data from their activities nowadays. This information is derived from transactions performed by a person or a paired device. The internet has now become the preferred method of contemporary communication, raising the need for a way to monitor and protect various connections [1]. To guarantee the system's credibility, interconnected equipment gathering data must be protected. A company should not only verify the identities of its network users and be able to track their activities, but also trust the technology that provides this information. The Internet of Things is a broad-based network of devices, which may interconnect and cooperate in the production of a range of services, anywhere and in any manner [1]. Balancing access control, authentication, and mobile identity management while interacting with other equipment, resources and infrastructure is a major issue for identity management. In the modern Internet communication environment, the maintenance of identities poses major difficulties. These difficulties on the internet are compounded by the unlimited number of users and anticipated resource limits [2]. Modern identity management systems focus primarily on the identities often used by end-users as well as on networked services. Even so, these identity management systems are developed because substantial resources are available and their application to the resource-laden Internet of things requires careful study. To effectively manage the myriad of applications and believe that the identity of a machine would be verified, businesses need to implement digital credential solutions with a robust foundation of trust [2,3]. Historically, this has been accomplished via the use of Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) and a smart card. Combining blockchain with public key infrastructure solutions enables the provision of identity and access management platforms for the internet of things (IoT). RFID security measures and different blockchain solutions provide are viable alternatives for securing IoT device authentication and authorization.
