Abstract
The Internet of Things IoT is a network of devices, vehicles, buildings and other items which are able to collect and exchange data. IoT devices are furnished with technologies such as electronics, software, sensors, actuators, and network connectivity in order to function as desired. A smart watch can be considered as an IoT device as they are equipped by almost all necessary technologies. In essence, smart watches are effectively wearable computers with communications and sensing capabilities. Many mobile apps run over smart watches using a mobile operating system. However, as the other IoT devices they are subject to security issues. In this paper, by surveying and reporting the security concerns and issues at smart watches, we aim to raise awareness on this matter. We also propose a road map for a more secure smart watch platform by defining the responsible actors and their responsibilities.
