As users interact with an Internet of Things (IoT) ecosystem, they leave behind traces of information about their presence, preferences and behavior. While the ecosystem can track individuals' movements to provide enhanced recommendations, individuals have little control over how this information is being used or distributed. Such tracking has led to increasing privacy concerns over the use of IoT. While it is possible to develop systems to enable anonymous interaction with IoT, anonymity results in limited benefits to both individuals and IoT ecosystems. In response, we present Incognito, a secure and privacy preserving IoT framework where user information exposure is driven by the concept of identity. In particular, we advocate user-managed identities, leaving the control of the choice of identity in a given context, as well as the level of exposure, in the hands of the user. Using Incognito, users can create identities that work only within certain contexts and are meaningless outside of these contexts. Furthermore, Incognito allows for simple management of information exposure through contextual-policies for sharing as well as querying of an IoT ecosystem. By giving individuals
