de Roon, Tom (author)Connecting ‘things’ like a doorbell, webcam, lamp, or other objects to the web to provide a service or control is called the Internet of Things (IoT). These devices contain vulnerabilities that form risks for the device user and possibly the network owner through their heterogeneity. The identified knowledge gap is the need for more IoT...master thesis 2021

Stoccuto, Stefania (author)Agriculture is a fundamental element of every economy. However, global issues such as climate change, land deterioration, and a continuously growing population are strongly impacting the sector. It is estimated that by 2050 the population will increase by two billion, reaching 9 billion people to be fed. In the past 34 years, researchers...master thesis 2020

Ho-Sam-Sooi, Nick (author)Given the significant privacy and security risks of IoT devices, it seems desirable to nudge consumers towards buying more secure devices and taking privacy into account when purchasing these devices. In order to support this goal, this study has examined the effect of security and privacy on IoT device purchase behaviour and assessed whether...master thesis 2020

Lazaridis, Lazaros (author)As software security expert Bruce Schneier argues, the pervasive vulnerability of embedded systems today is structurally similar to the security crisis of PCs in the mid-1990s—only much worse. Embedded devices are ideal malware targets for several reasons. Firstly, Internet-connected devices are inherently more exposed to remote exploitation....master thesis 2020

Ferreras Chumillas, Pablo (author)The recently introduced General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) allows universities to use WiFi Access data for their research activities. The richness, ubiquity, and scalability of WiFi tracking make it an extremely relevant resource for studying the behavior and mobility patterns of groups and social systems. However, it is also a sensitive...master thesis 2019

Blokland, Boris (author)The Internet of Things is a promising vision which enables trillions of sensor devices to be connected. A common bottleneck for such devices is the energy supply. Using batteries is expensive, it reduces the device lifetime and has a negative impact on the environment. Energy harvesting provides a more sustainable solution. Unfortunately,...master thesis 2019

Szabó, Veronika (author)The design of the white cane, the most used mobility aid for visually impaired, has not changed significantly since the mid-20th century. New concepts and technological solutions have failed to catch on. However, the cane seems unappealing and outdated to some potential users. Margot Scheltema, the initiator of this graduation project, is a...master thesis 2019

Mosterd, Lars (author)The main problem hampering innovation in the Internet of Things (IoT) is the fragmentation and lack of interoperability between IoT platforms. A possible solution for IoT platform sponsors to overcome this problem is to open up towards other platforms. To better understand how the IoT platform market is evolving and to inform future decisions...master thesis 2019

Verstegen, Susanne (author)Malicious software such as botnets are a threat to society and increasingly so through Internet of Things (IoT) devices. The large volume, pervasiveness and high vulnerability of IoT devices make them low hanging fruit for malicious actors. Currently, the biggest threat for insecure IoT devices is Mirai, a botnet which is deployed for DDoS...master thesis 2019
