Security, Trust and Privacy Models, and Architectures in IoT Environments

This book is dedicated to the issues of security, trust and privacy models, and architectures in IoT environments. The authors aim to capture the latest research and contributions from academy, industry, and other stakeholders on new security models, architectures, protocols, and standards for ensuring security, privacy, and trustworthiness to IoT systems. The authors discuss the convergence of IoT, software agents, and edge computing to introduce social features into IoT systems, combining trustworthiness and reputation information collected by agents at the edge with security and privacy mechanisms. They also cover experimental and simulated campaigns that evaluate strategies to improve the security and privacy of the IoT world, and at the same time the ability to prevent and deter deceptive behaviors. The book is relevant for researchers, professionals, academics, and students. - Covers the issues of security, trust and privacy models, reputation, and architectures in IoTenvironments; - Includes IoT security applications in different domains to offer services for smart home and cities, smart grid, smart community, e-Commerce, and many others; - Presents positioning of software agent technologies and the integration of edge computing to help tackle security issues in IoT.
