Introduction. This review delves into lattice-based encryption and its implications for bolstering the protection of Internet of Things (IoT) systems. The survey extensively explores the post- quantum robustness of inherent in lattice-based cryptographic techniques, highlighting their potential to effectively address the evolving security challenges within the IoT domain. Methods. The literature review not only scrutinizes traditional, pre-quantum cryptography methods but also conducts a thorough analysis of quantum computing and its possible influence on existing encryption techniques, emphasizing the necessity for post-quantum solutions. Developing. The paper discusses the pivotal role of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in standardizing post-quantum cryptography as well as presents a comprehensive analysis their work in this domain. A focused examination of NIST finalists reveals lattice-based cryptography as a key area of research, delving into its mechanisms and operational principles. Conclusion. The paper concludes with an in-depth exploration of diverse lattice-based cryptography applications within various IoT systems, encompassing domains such as E- health, smart cities, smart grids, vehicular communications, and industrial IoT systems. This comprehensive analysis provides valuable insights into the multifaceted landscape of lattice-based encryption and its versatile implementatios across different IoT domain.
