Various industrial sectors, including healthcare, facility management, agriculture, energy, and transportation, use IoT technologies. Interconnected networks are starting to include IoT devices like wearables, commercial appliances, connected electronics, smart grids, smart automobiles, etc. These gadgets produce enormous amounts of data, which are gathered, examined, recorded, and kept on the networks. IoT security is challenging to secure since the devices employ basic processors and operating systems that may not be compatible with advanced security measures. The information and the devices that are used by organizations as a part of their network must be protected against hackers. In this paper, we discuss about overall review of IoT systems that contains the scope of IoT in the future era, Some of the characteristics of IoT systems, layers including the working Architecture of IoT. We will also discuss some of the vulnerabilities and surface area attacks, application areas regarding IoT. Potential weaknesses in the IoT system could cause serious issues for enterprises. The majority of Internet of Things (IoT) devices have security flaws, including incorrect physical security systems, lack of lock-out mechanisms, weak encryption schemes, improper key management systems, and improper authentication mechanisms, or the use of default credentials. As in the evolving era, security issues are becoming a major problem so some of the security threats of IoT are also mentioned here. This paper also provides the methods for addressing the vulnerabilities to IoT systems' security.

These ICSs, which were previously isolated, have now become systems that contain online sensors, wireless networks and artificial intelligence technologies. This situation has also increased the scope of attacks by malicious people who intend to carry out industrial espionage and sabotage these systems. In this study, water quality estimation systems and anomaly detection are comprehensively examined. In this direction, the statistics of the studies in the literature, the methods for water quality anomaly detection, the existing data sets, and the difficulties encountered in the water systems to achieve better water management are discussed. Principle findings of this research can be summarized as follows: (i) new methodologies and architectures have improved water quality assessment through anomaly detection, (ii) different datasets including multi-modal information have been presented, and (iii) remaining challenges and prospects have been investigated.

Although initially based on the notion of the link between a physical device, its counterpart in a virtual environment and the technological aspects of that relationship, IoT-based wearable devices now offer multiple contributions to all types of users, from professionals and organizations to ordinary people. However, there are inaccuracies, abundant definitions, limited clarity in terms of trends, benefits, components, challenges and future lines of research. In this sense, a mixed literature review study was conducted. The mixed design, of dominant type (CUAN-qual), was composed of a quantitative analysis of bibliometric type and a qualitative analysis of thematic type and embedded in the first one. Data are provided on the main trends observed in the bibliometric indicators studied, a synthesis of some qualitative indicators of particular relevance and pertinence. In addition, future lines of research are presented to address strengths and challenges in this field.

To address this issue, an Internet-of-Things (IoT)-based air pollution monitoring system was proposed. The mechanism was designed to measure various air quality parameters such as temperature, humidity, various gases, microbes, and light intensity in real time. The proposed sys-tem consists of sensor nodes, a gateway, WIFI module, an LCD display, and a cloud server. The sensor nodes were placed at different locations to measure air quality parameters, and the data were transmitted to the gateway via wireless communication. The gateway aggregates the data from the sensor nodes and sends them to the cloud server for further analysis and processing. The cloud server processes the data, and the system also includes a web interface that displays data on the pollution levels of the air in real time. The sys-tem can also send alerts to users when the air quality is poor, allowing them to take the necessary precautions. This system could assist decision-makers in taking appropriate measures to alleviate air pollution and safeguard the health of the community by providing real-time information about air quality. The system was evaluated in a real-world environment and the results demonstrated its effectiveness in providing accurate and reliable air quality information. The proposed system has the potential to be used in various applications, including public health and environmental monitoring, and can be integrated with other IoT devices to enhance their functionality.

Healthcare has been facing so many conundrums that now could be catered to by the technology of IoT. IoT has found its application in the healthcare sector in the form of various health monitoring devices as well as sma4rfj, and tjti88lirt wearables for efficiently monitoring the health status of patients and improving upon the traditional infrastructure. Further, IoT in healthcare introduces and identifies the intelligent trend and directions by which one can be aware of health, fitness, and ailments. In this way, IoT progressively adds to the medical field and healthcare. At the same time, there are some challenges which are pertaining to IoT in healthcare which include the breaching of confidential information such as patient data.
OBJECTIVES: The paper aims to discuss the solutions to this problem in detail.
METHODS: The paper fulfils its objectives through the deployment of technology such as blockchain and fog computing. This paper delineates the comparative study of how IoT assimilates healthcare.
RESULTS: The paper discusses various identified technologies to overcome the challenges in IoT for healthcare.
CONCLUSION: The amalgamation of IoT with healthcare shows efficacious outcomes. It can even create the difference between life and death. IoT overcomes the shortcomings of the traditional healthcare system. However, there are some challenges of securities associated with the IoT technology which can be coped with some measures such as cryptography, and blockchain etc.
