Abstract

Today's digital world has been turned into a classy one due to the emerging technology, Internet of Things (IoT). IoT is about connecting any device to any other device or object or person or any entity of interest. Through internet, the connectivity span is increased making it a fully linked environment. An attack is a threat that can harm any component of a system. In case of IoT, such attacks may take place at any level, software, hardware, network, etc. Stakeholders of IoT, designers, developers, or users must know the range of attacks associated with every segment of IoT. In this regard, this chapter gives an eye opener for getting familiarity with various types of attacks at all levels. Also, to take care of attacks prone systems, the concepts of threat modeling with supporting details are discussed in this chapter.
