Abstract

The recent developments in technology have led to new emerging wearable devices such as Smart Glasses. Usually, consumer electronics devices are designed for the benefits and functionalities they can provide, and the security aspect is incorporated later. In its core, a Smart Glass is based on components available in modern smartphones. This includes the CPU, Sensors and Operating System. Thus would share similar security threats. This paper identifies security threats and privacy issues of the Smart Glass from two different perspectives, as well as propose preliminary solutions to overcome such risks. This includes, a suggested two-factor authentication for smart glasses based on PIN or Voice combined with an Iris scan. The purpose of this work to examine the current state-of-the-art of smart glasses applications, and analyse existing and potential security and privacy issues. Therefore, we investigate issues from a system perspective, and the users point of view. In addition, we survey existing solutions for each issue.
