Smart homes have become increasingly popular for IoT products and services with a lot of promises for improving the quality of life of individuals. Nevertheless, the heterogeneous, dynamic, and Internet-connected nature of this environment adds new concerns as private data becomes accessible, often without the householders’ awareness. This accessibility alongside with the rising risks of data security and privacy breaches, makes smart home security a critical topic that deserves scrutiny. In current paper, is presented an overview of challenges related to the privacy and security in the smart house cyber physical systems. Also, were realized constraints, evaluated solutions, and a several challenges and research issues where further investigation is strongly required. I have identified issues that need to be solved: risk assessment methods, information flow control accesses, identity management, and security management methods.
