Abstract

This project focuses on building and developing a secure smart home IoT system that can give near real-time information about the status of the home, with the aid of cloud and wireless sensor communication technologies. In this paper, the capabilities and limitations of smart home systems were researched. The project built a smart Internet of Things (IoT) system for the security of the home. This project uses inexpensive and commercially available hardware, and the software solutions were developed based on open source packages. The performance and the security of the home IoT system were tested. Further security analysis was conducted to analyse the vulnerabilities of the connected IoT devices. The solutions presented in this paper are applicable to the real world and not limited to a controlled environment.
