Privacy engineering in Smart Home (SH) systems: A comprehensive Privacy Threat Analysis (PTA) and risk management approach
Summary
This research paper presents a comprehensive analysis of privacy threats in smart home systems, which are networked devices (like cameras, thermostats, and speakers) that collect data about your home and habits. The authors develop a privacy threat analysis (PTA) framework to identify and categorize different ways your personal information could be exposed or misused in these systems, and propose a risk management approach to help reduce those dangers. The work is intended to help engineers and developers build smarter homes that better protect residents' privacy.
