Abstract

This study focused on ensuring the security of Internet of Things (IoT) devices in homes, given the growing adoption of automation technologies. Evaluating their reliability was crucial to protecting privacy and data security. The main objective was to conduct a systematic review of the current state of domestic IoT devices. An exploratory, cross-sectional, and qualitative methodology was employed, following the PRISMA method. Articles were searched in academic databases such as IEEE Xplore, Springer Link, ScienceDirect, SciELO, and Google Scholar. Inclusion criteria focused on studies from the last five years on trends, challenges, and vulnerabilities in the security of IoT devices in homes.The review identified common vulnerabilities such as lack of encryption and weak passwords, recommending the implementation of encryption, password management, and regular updates. The benefits of IoT in homes include convenience and energy efficiency, while limitations encompass privacy concerns and compatibility issues. Anonymization and pseudonymization techniques are crucial for protecting personal data. Additionally, the importance of adopting common standards to improve interoperability and security in the domestic IoT ecosystem was highlighted.
