Internet das coisas e privacidade: uma revisão sistemática de literatura

Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) has already transformed society, reaching industries, cities and homes and the economic value of this transformation is estimated at trillions of dollars. Together with the potential benefits of interconnected smart devices in the IoT environment, they increase the risk and potential for abuse by incorporating detection and intelligence into each of the connected devices. Thus, a major problem with the growingnumber of IoT devices is the increased complexity to operate them securely in order to preserve the privacy of users. In this way, this article sought, through a systematic review of the literature, to answer this problem with an analysis of articles that address the methods described to guarantee the privacy of the users in IoT. For this purpose, articles were selected from 2010, from the Web of Science, Scopus and Ebsco databases, and as a result, it is observed that the protection of personal data, user behavior, legal aspects and forms of classification of privacy were the most frequently cited topics. It is thus perceived that solutions are needed that consider these themes together, not only through technologies, but also of legislation, and especially of user empowerment.
