In the past decade the idea of Internet of Things (IoT), where everything from sensor devices to TV’s are connected to the internet, has emerged.
With a great amount of different vendors and software solutions, there is a need to address how to mitigate security in the connected devices, and ensure the consumer’s privacy.
This thesis presents a design for an IoT security gateway that can raise the level of security in IoT devices, without demanding the devices to be designed in a specific way. The thesis is based on research about current IoT security solutions and consumer products on the market. This in combination has provided the relevant information to be able to create gateway, that by the help of meta data from the transomssion of IoT devices is able to notify user’s about possible security breaches, and possibly block transmissions if desired.
