Abstract

This chapter is the introduction to the book. It presents the main security and privacy challenges for modern IoT systems, along with state-of-the-art frameworks for security risk assessment and mitigation. Accordingly, it discusses the limitations of these frameworks when it comes to implementing risk management systems for modern IoT systems. Moreover, it outlines some of the enabling technologies and security concepts that could help organizations alleviate these limitations. Some of these concepts are driving the security and technologies that are introduced in subsequent chapters.
