9.1 Introduction
The term the Internet of things (IoT) is becoming an increasingly growing topic of conversation both in workplace and outside of it. IoT is a system of interrelated computing
devices, mechanical and digital machines, objects, animals, or people that are provided
with unique identifiers and the ability to transfer data over a network without requiring human-to-human-to-computer interaction. Here we need to know how the devices or
