Description

The Internet of Bio-Nano Things (IoBNT) is a pioneering vision of embedding biological components into the existing network of interconnected nanodevices to create sophisticated webs of nano-scale biological and artificial components. This framework extends the conventional Internet of Things architecture to include biological components to facilitate new relationships between artificial nano-scale devices and biological systems. IoBNT enables unprecedented functionalities in healthcare, environmental monitoring, agriculture, and food protection through multiple communication channels, including molecular communication, THz-band electromagnetic nanocommunication, acoustic nanocommunication, and FRET-based nanocommunication. Nonetheless, there are still many issues to be solved in the areas of nanonetwork implementation, bio-cyber interface development, big data analytics, security, energy harvesting, and biocompatibility. Some of the potential countermeasures to security risks include device hardening, cryptographic mechanisms, external device delegation, intrusion detection, and hardware-based solutions. Although IoBNT presents a great prospect for change across various sectors, there is a need for more research to resolve technical, biological, and security issues so that it can be adopted in real life. 2026 Elsevier Inc.
