Abstract

The rapid growth of the Internet of Things (IoT) has resulted in significant progress in home automation and remote sensing. However, this expansion has brought with it new privacy and security concerns, such as the risk of cyberattacks, a lack of centralized design and insufficient resources to monitor and implement security measures. Furthermore, the traceability of sensor‐generated data compromises user privacy. Block chain technology, which is a decentralized, distributed and public digital ledger, provides a promising solution to these issues. This paper investigates the advantages of integrating blockchain tech‐ nology with IoT, emphasizing privacy preservation via pseudony‐mous addresses, access control, encryption and other techniques. Furthermore, we discuss how blockchain promotes accountability and resilience in IoT networks by enabling transparency, trace‐ ability and distributed architecture.
