Abstract: The internet of thins (IoT) framework has helped in design of high speed connected networks which include Wide Area Networks (WANs). Cognitive Radio can be considered to be one of the key enablers of high speed data transfer with evolving generation of wireless networks. Cognitive networks find their applications in military and defence as well with the advent of internet of things and its allied applications in military warfare. Cognitive Radio Networks often share common resources such as bandwidth or spectrum among several users or stations. Due to continued sharing of resources, cognitive networks often come under security attacks, most common of which are jamming and eavesdropping attacks. In this paper, the basics of cognitive IoT networks have been presented with the focus of security aware cognitive IoT networks. Previous work in the allied domain has been discussed along with their salient features.

Keywords: Wide Area Network (WAN), Internet of Things (IoT), cognitive radio network (CRN), security aware spectrum assignment, cyber-attacks, false alarm, and throughput.
