dc.description.abstractInternet of Things (IoT) is currently playing a major role in how intelligent devices are interconnected and deployed to automate services in transport and smart living sectors. However, IoT is facing challenges in terms of data protection and authentication due to the heterogeneous nature of IoT devices that do not exhibit a central authority. It is crucial to provide secure and trustworthy solutions for the increasing demands of decentralized IoT environments. To this end, this research proposes a novel integration of blockchain-technologies in IoT services to enhance security, data integrity, users privacy, system scalability and interoperability of devices. This is done by leveraging smart contracts to enforce authentication, access control and data exchange mechanisms for IoT devices. The proposed approach is verified by the construction and deployment of a smart contract over the Polygon blockchain network in a simulated real-world IoT scenario. The obtained results show that the proposed approach ensures fast and secure authentication in IoT networks by decreasing the risk of unauthorized access and data tampering.en_UK
