What is it about?

Within the trials of using technology for the society, efforts have proven advantages of the new wave of rapid-growth change that began and is anticipating to proliferate with more potent connectivity and interoperability of diverse devices, named as the Social internet of things (SIoT). It is a rising paradigm of IoT wherein distinctive IoT devices interact and set up relationships with each in the academic field nowadays. Objects are establishing their social relationships in an unbiased way. The main issue is to understand how the objects in Social IoT can interact in the higher education systems to implement a secure system. Consequently, focus on the trustworthiness models.

Why is it important?

Because of the billions of linked devices, there may be a huge risk of identity and information leakage, device manipulation, records falsification, server/network attack and subsequent effect to application platforms. Whilst the variety of these interconnected devices keeps to grow each day in the academic learning field, So, does the wide variety of security threats and vulnerabilities posed to these devices at universities.

Perspectives

The primary aim of this research work is to state the risks and threats that faces SIoT by identifying (a) The essential domains in which SIoT is highly used in higher education, (b) The security necessities and challenges that SIoT is currently dealing with, (c) the existing security solutions which have been proposed or applied with their barriers.
