Abstract

The Internet of Things is a concept that has been heard quite a lot in recent years, a concept that slowly emerged, but over time it has experienced a booming growth that was then adopted not only by giant IT companies, offering according to the directions of each company that adopts the corresponding services and applications to the end user. Undoubtedly this technology has come to stay for a long time, it has come to improve our living conditions and to simplify habits and functions that required time and many times difficulties. The Internet of Things is almost everywhere around us from the super market to the cars we drive, our everyday life is going easy and we are happy to live with, but there are two important points that we should consider: a) Uncontrolled product design based on the Internet of Things. b) Access to data managed by Internet of Things are inaccessible by the users. According to the above, important questions arise, such as: a) How and where these devices store and manage the data now? b) How and where these devices store and manage data in the future? c) What personal data are collected and for whom? d) How protected they are from hacking attacks? e) How capable is an Internet of Thing to take full control of an information system?
