Design of a Privacy Risk Model for IoT applications in smart homes

Domestic IoT devices have been registering extremely high adoption rates as new generations increase their purchasing power and the promises of value expressed by the manufacturers of these devices are becoming increasingly attractive and necessary for users. Related to this, the user's privacy surface attack is expanding directly, and its protection is limited by diverse factors, for instance design, device utility or even manufacturers profitability. Therefore, in this paper we propose to develop a risk management model for privacy in IoT domestic devices. However, as the protection of privacy is an individual perception, generalization is not practical given the difference in perception of privacy from individual to individual, our proposal is a framework that guides the elaboration of a specific individual model. In this paper we present the steps to develop the model and establish the action plan to manage privacy risks.
