Cybersecurity Challenges and Solutions in Edge Computing for IoT

Abstract

As the field of Internet of Things (IoT) continues
to expand, it has created a newly connected environment,
transforming physical objects that surround us into an ecosystem
of information that is rapidly changing the way we live.
Meanwhile edge computing architectures have introduced a new
decentralised approach to computing by bringing the services
closer to the data source and offering better performance and
more security than traditional cloud centric IoT architectures.
So, in this research paper, we discuss what exactly comprises an
Internet of Things architecture. We will analyse the changes that
edge computing brings about to the table. We will also explore
how these architectures can be integrated to design better IoT
solutions for society and industry.
