Abstract

The prevailing COVID-19 pandemic has put IoT-based technologies to the test. It has given rise to diverse predictions for the future, and the expectations are that IoT-inspired technologies will play a significant role in the new normal. However, one of the key challenges for the success of IoT is its privacy and security issues. This chapter presents a comprehensive review of privacy and security challenges and opportunities for IoT-inspired solutions. Also, it provides an in-depth analysis of IoT-inspired Big Data issues, data protection and security concerns around IoT. The contributions of this chapter cover a comprehensive review of the IoT privacy issues and data protection policies, regulations and laws and IoT security challenges and opportunities that need to be addressed in the next normal.
