This book explores recent advances in the Internet of things (IoT) via advanced technologies and provides an overview of most aspects which are relevant for advance secure, distributed, decentralized blockchain technology in the Internet of things, their applications, and industry IoT. The book provides an in-depth analysis of the step-by-step evolution of IoT to create a change by enhancing the productivity of industries. It introduces how connected things, data, and their communication (data sharing) environment build a transparent, reliable, secure environment for people, processes, systems, and services with the help of blockchain technology.

"IoT refers to the interconnection of smart devices and collect data and make intelligent decisions. It is embedded in everyday objects, enabling them to send and receive data. A lack of intrinsic security measures makes IoT vulnerable to privacy and security threats. Blockchain, an encrypted, distributed computer filing system designed to allow the creation of tamper-proof records. The merger of Internet of Things (IoT) and blockchain technology is a step towards creating a verifiable, secure and permanent method of recording data processed by "smart" machines. This book explores the platforms and applications of blockchain-enabled IoT"--
