This paper analyzes the application of Internet of Things (IoT) technologies in smart home automation and security systems. The study examines system architecture, including sensor networks, centralized control modules, and Human–Machine Interface (HMI) components. Particular attention is given to wireless communication technologies, especially Bluetooth, emphasizing their advantages, deployment efficiency, and practical limitations. Key performance aspects such as reliability, fault tolerance, and redundancy are discussed alongside cybersecurity and data privacy challenges. The role of symmetric and asymmetric encryption methods in securing communication is also addressed. The results indicate that IoT-based systems enhance residential safety, improve energy efficiency, and increase user convenience.
