The Internet of Things (IoT) plays a remarkable role in all aspects of our daily lives. It covers many fields including healthcare, automobiles, entertainments, industrial appliances, sports, homes, etc. The pervasiveness of IoT eases some everyday activities, enriches the way people interact with the environment and surroundings, and augments our social interactions with other people and objects. This holistic vision, however, raises also some concerns, like which level of security the IoT could provide? and how it offers and protects the privacy of its users? Developing applications for the IoT could be a challenging task due to several reasons; (i) the high complexity of distributed computing, (ii) the lack of general guidelines or frameworks that handle low level communication and simplify high level implementation, (iii) multiple programming languages, and (iv) various communication protocols. It involves developers to manage the infrastructure and handle both software and hardware layers along with preserving all functional and non-functional software requirements. This complexity has led to a quick evolution in terms of introducing IoT programming frameworks that handle the aforementioned challenges. Very recently, several IoT frameworks have been launched by the major shareholders in the IoT domain and by the research community in order to support and make it easy to develop, deploy and maintain IoT applications. Each player built his approach depending on his vision towards the IoT world [1]. In this survey, we compare the properties of a subset of IoT frameworks, targeting in particular their security features. The selected set of IoT platforms1 includes: AWS IoT from Amazon, ARM Bed from ARM and other partners, Azure IoT Suite from Microsoft, Brillo/Weave from Google, Calvin from Ericsson, HomeKit from Apple, Kura from Eclipse, and SmartThings from Samsung. We selected the above frameworks based on the following criteria: (i) the reputation of the vendors in the software and electronics industries, (ii) the support of rapid application development and the number of applications on the store, (iii) the coverage and usage of the framework, and it’ s popularity in the IoT market.
