Since IoT devices are primarily configured to collect and transfer data through the internet without being administered by people, they can be at risk that any machine connected to internet might confront. In addition, it is challenging to protect IoT devices in contrast to other online connected devices because of its restricted resources. IoT device¡¯s collected data hold numerous personal details of the consumer that places high emphasis on confidentiality in the user perspective. For these reasons attackers consider IoT device¡¯s collected data as their primary targets. In fact, growing demand of IoT technologies has attracted hackers to focus their efforts to manipulate and monitor these devices and data they generate. To mitigate this adverse situation, IoT devices should be safe from any possible attacks. Beside that, 90% of all IoT data will be saved in third-party databases in next five years. These reasons made the call of Encryption within the device.
