Analysis of Artificial intelligence influence on designing adaptive user interfaces?
something like this:
Title: "Securing IoT Communications: An Investigation into Cybersecurity Threats and Development of a Scalable Secure Communication Protocol"
Introduction:
The Internet of Things (IoT) has revolutionized the way we live and work, with an estimated 20 billion devices expected to be connected by 2025 .....(include citation with its reference). This rapid growth has led to a significant increase in IoT device adoption, with 73% of organizations already using IoT devices (include citation with its reference). However, this growth has also exposed IoT devices to various cyber threats, compromising user data and privacy. In 2021, IoT device attacks increased by 80% compared to the previous year, with 75% of organizations experiencing an IoT security breach (include citation with its reference). The existing security protocols for IoT devices have limitations in terms of scalability, interoperability, and adaptability, making them vulnerable to attacks such as device spoofing, data breaches, and man-in-the-middle attacks. To address this critical issue, this research aims to conduct a comprehensive analysis of IoT security threats and develop a secure communication protocol using encryption, authentication, and access control mechanisms. The proposed protocol will prioritize scalability, interoperability, and adaptability to ensure the security and privacy of IoT devices and their users. By investigating IoT security threats and developing a secure communication protocol, this research aims to contribute to the development of a safer and more secure IoT ecosystem.
Problem Statement:
Internet of Things (IoT) devices have become an integral part of modern life, but their rapid growth and deployment have exposed them to various cyber threats. The existing security protocols for IoT devices have limitations in terms of scalability, interoperability, and adaptability, making them vulnerable to attacks such as device spoofing, data breaches, and man-in-the-middle attacks. This vulnerability compromises user data and privacy, posing significant risks to individuals, businesses, and critical infrastructure.
NOTE
Kindly do not forget to cite your paper and also reference as I was guiding above in the text (include citation with its reference), it is so crucial
