Abstract

Capturing privacy and security requirements in the very early stages is essential for creating sufficient public confidence in order to facilitate the adaption of novel systems such as the Internet of Things (IoT). However, traditional requirements engineering methods and frameworks might not be sufficiently effective when dealing with new types of IoT heterogeneous systems. Therefore, building a methodological framework to model the privacy and security requirements specifications for IoT is necessary in order to deal with its mission critical nature. The purpose of this project is to develop such a requirements engineering framework in order to ensure proper development of IoT with security and privacy taken into account from the earliest stages.
