In our day to day life we come across many implementations of IoT devices. Such devices indeed do make life easier. But these devices come with a certain amount of technical drawbacks. It is not easy to protect such devices from being hacked as we know they can be very easily hacked with the right mechanism. Even though IoT devices offer us a simple life, they do not always promise us security that the user expects. There have been many researches that have taken place from the years 2016 to 2019 to increase the user security and this paper gives another such solution to secure the devices of IoT. Here we will discuss the key technologies used such as encryption mechanisms, cryptographic algorithms, protecting sensor data and communication security.
