Abstract

IoT technology, which is interpreted as the Internet of Things, is an emerging technology that poses a number of challenges, including "accountability frameworks." The main question of the present study is that what legal policies need to be adopted to provide a legal framework in the field of "responsibility" of these tools? To answer the above question, this study uses documentary research and a comparative study between the rules governing the legal system of Iran and the European Union. These tools are the necessary policies to improve the monitoring of the performance of these tools and the policy of the performance of IoT tools and their controllers in relation to the rules of responsibility. To implement the policies announced above, the implementation of some policy recommendations such as creating public awareness, holding training courses for employees of companies, anticipating mechanisms to protect information owners, anticipating the mechanism for issuing digital signatures and amending laws can Be efficient.
