ABSTRACT
This chapter presents requirements and challenges for handling successful security in Internet of Things (IoT). The fundamental idea is that IoT will connect all objects around us to provide seamless communication and contextual services offered by them. Economics of scale in the IoT presents new security challenges for ubiquitous devices in terms of authentication, addressing and embedded security. Security will become more serious issue as the IoT becomes an integral part of everyday life. The numbers of embedded systems like refrigerator, washing machines to TV are connected to the Internet, but the vast majority of these systems are un-patchable, or poorly maintained.
