The Internet of Things (IoT) is a rapidly growing field, where everyday devices such as smart appliances, wearables, sensors, and vehicles are connected to the internet to gather, share, and act on data. While IoT has unlocked immense potential in industries like healthcare, agriculture, smart cities, and industrial automation, it also presents significant cybersecurity challenges. The integration of billions of IoT devices into networks creates vast attack surfaces, making IoT systems vulnerable to cyberattacks. Cybersecurity in IoT aims to protect these devices, the networks they operate in, and the sensitive data they handle from malicious threats.Python is a popular language for developing cybersecurity solutions in IoT due to its simplicity, versatility, and the wide array of libraries available for network programming, encryption, anomaly detection, and penetration testing.Final-year projects focusing on cybersecurity in IoT offer an opportunity to address real-world security concerns in this evolving field. These projects could involve implementing secure communication protocols, detecting network intrusions, analyzing vulnerabilities, or creating systems to prevent attacks on IoT devices and networks.
