Through the literature review and use of the bibliographic research method, it was possible to collect information related to this theme. It was possible to verify through the results obtained, some risks, such as intense monitoring, data collection and medical information, and the challenge of privacy in public spaces, particularities about this technology are presented, and some attacks that are inferred in IoT. From these results it is concluded that, although there are concerns on the part of the legal system, about the protection of personal data, there are still challenges in this context of privacy of personal data. This work highlights the importance of concern for security, updating and maintenance of devices and devices connected to the internet.
