Remote Device Sharing in Smart-Homes: Explained by Cultural Differences

Chellani, Prateek Muneesh

Abstract Details

2022, MS, University of Cincinnati, Education, Criminal Justice, and Human Services: Information Technology.
With families increasingly moving towards smart devices and home automation, the right security policies and access control are essential. However, in multi-person and family homes, several users are sharing an IoT device, bringing up the question of who’s in control. We examine how smart-home owners share their IoT devices, and how they feel about using sharing features. In a global landscape, understanding cultural differences is key in every field, and IoT is no different. Using a mixture of survey and interview methods, we collect data regarding smart-home owners’ IoT devices and which of these devices they share to understand their device sharing preferences. We then expand our findings by understanding the user demographics and cultural differences.
