Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a popular technology that creates a network by connecting and with other devices and systems over the internet. Due to its popularity and weak security, it has become one of the prime targets for the attackers. This research aims to propose a new authentication system for IoT devices to solve the security issue found in default passwords. A questionnaire is proposed to be conducted to IoT users in different age range to understand more on their experience in using IoT devices. The information collected will be beneficial for the research. The proposed solution is discussed in this research. By combining NFC technology and MAC address, it can replace the current password authentication used in IoT devices. The solution is more user friendly, and it helps to strengthen the security in IoT devices. Although the proposed solution will aid on the default and weak password part of the IoT devices, there is also vulnerabilities in the system. The research will help to bring more insight and attention to researchers to research
