Abstract

Smart homes, smart cities, smart everything and the Internet of Things (IoT) have incredible impact in our life. Typically, IoT devices are though vulnerable to attacks and the strategy to manage IoT security is influenced by the IoT model and the application field. Social Internet of Things (SIoT) can be viewed as the evolution of IoT in the same way social networks can be considered an evolution of the Internet. In this paper, we discuss about security issues on social IoT approach based on a social broker paradigm. In particular, we present a solution to manage information privacy in a SIoT environment built on a social broker.
