Technologies for the Internet of Things (IoT) are maturing, yet no common standards dictate their direction, leaving space for a plethora of research directions and opportunities. Among the most important IoT topics is security. When we design a robust system, it is important to know the available options for facing common tasks related to access control, authentication, and authorization. In this review, we systematically analyze 1622 peer-reviewed publications from October 2017 to December 2020 to find the taxonomy of security solutions. In addition, we assess and categorize current practices related to IoT security solutions, commonly involved technologies, and standards applied in recent research. This manuscript provides a practical road map to recent research, guiding the reader and providing an overview of recent research efforts.
