The Internet of Things (IoT) is currently the main enabler of smart services, where network communication links physical objects (embedded Things), such as a sensor with a main backend server, and allows the collection and exchange of data. Therefore, it is very important to maintain high availability of smart services, especially critical services, in case any failure of the objects occurs. In this paper, we address the different business continuity (BC) approaches that can be implemented in IoT services. An assessment of the vulnerabilities and threats of IoT services is essential for containing damage and continuing services during a crisis. There is a lack of frameworks and guidelines that address the BC of IoT services. Therefore, in this paper, we review and analyze the different types of IoT architectures and risks associated with them. In addition, we analyze many use cases and different types of standards, guidelines, policies and frameworks of BC that can outfit our final framework. As a result, the analysis outcomes are used to propose a BC framework for the IoT. The proposal explains different types of IoT architectures along with different types of BC measurements for IoT services. Finally, we implement our proposed framework with one of the real IoT service use cases.

物联网（IoT）当前是智能服务的主要推动力，网络通信将诸如传感器与主后端服务器的物理对象（嵌入式物）链接在一起，并允许数据的收集和交换。因此，在对象发生任何故障的情况下，保持智能服务（尤其是关键服务）的高可用性非常重要。在本文中，我们讨论了可以在物联网服务中实现的不同业务连续性（BC）方法。评估物联网服务的漏洞和威胁对于遏制危机中的损害和持续服务至关重要。缺乏解决物联网服务BC的框架和指南。因此，在本文中，我们回顾并分析了不同类型的物联网架构以及与之相关的风险。另外，我们分析了许多用例以及可以构成我们最终框架的BC的不同类型的标准，指南，政策和框架。结果，分析结果被用来为物联网提出一个BC框架。该提案解释了不同类型的物联网架构，以及不同类型的物联网服务的BC测量。最后，我们使用一种真正的物联网服务用例来实施我们提出的框架。
