Abstract

Privacy concerns in smart home technologies have surged as their adoption becomes ubiquitous. This scoping review paper undertakes an exhaustive examination of the current literature to elucidate the state of privacy within this burgeoning context. Employing a scoping review methodology, we have analysed about 78 peerreviewed articles. Key emergent themes include privacy concerns, trust, user perception, and a range of technical risks and mitigation. Our findings reveal significant gaps in privacy design and protection, establishing this paper as a novel contribution that sets the groundwork for future research. Additionally, it provides practitioners and policymakers with actionable insights for enhancing privacy measures in smart homes. Supplemental material, including a curated database of the reviewed literature and previously published papers, will be available to reviewers to enrich the understanding of our contribution.
