ABSTRACT
Internet of Things (IoT) consists of devices, smart objects, and people that are given a unique identifier connected to the internet via wireless network. These devices are usually resources limited such as battery powered, memory and processing capability etc. The migration of these objects to the internet make them susceptible to various attacks related to external or internal unauthorized devices, which affect physical links, radio hops and routing discovery, give rise to malfunction and resources exhausting. The security mechanisms widely used on the Internet are too heavy to be integrated on small constrained objects. Therefore, we need secure protocols or add a security features to the existing ones with a minimum overhead. Routing also is one of the factors that may impact the security. In this paper, we will focus our work on the State of the art of existing protocols and study their vulnerabilities. Potential solutions based on the blockchain technology are also discussed in this paper.
