Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

IoT is one of the most important and profitable projects proposed by Kevin Ashton since 1999.One of the most critical issues in maintaining communication between things and protecting the data is the security issue of IoT.So far, different strategies have been made to maintain safe security.In this paper, we provide a Five-Layers model by adding two security layers based on BlockChain.We show that blockchain smart contracts are a solution to enhance IoT security and prevent infiltration into the network.
