INTERNET OF THINGS: RISK-BASED APPROACH

Internet of Things (IoT), which has become a popular technology concept in recent years, will have an important place in our daily lives with the help of 5G technology, even though it already has some difficulties and problems to be overcome. In this new technology, basically, devices including from simple to complex main functions; security and privacy concepts are two of the most important issues to be handled with due to the fact that it is transformed into smart devices that have mathematical and logical features and can be talked to each other through the addition of many sensors and communication interface hardware. Although there are numerous studies and academic discussions about security of IoT, because of the fact that there is no common hardware, algorithm, or interface of these smart devices; developing a commonsecurity protocol for all of them is the biggest obstacle to achieve it. For this reason, devices with IoT technology take their places in the houses and workplaces, and if sufficient measures are not taken, it is thought that the cyber attacks, which have been increasing in recent years and are being carried out on a global scale and organized, will pave the way for another dimension. The previous studies on the security of the IoT were examined within the scope of this article. In addition, the structure, architecture and security threats of the IoT were discussed. The controls that can be evaluated for the audit of the Internet of Things are pointed out and also, the measures to ensure the safety of the IoT were presented
