Internet of Things (IoT) is playing more and more important roles in our daily lives in the last decade. It can be a part of traditional machine or equipment to daily household objects as well as wireless sensor networks and devices. IoT has a huge potential which is still to be unleashed. However, as the foundation of IoT is the Internet and all the data collected by these devices is over the Internet, these devices also face threats to security and privacy. At the physical or sensor layer of IoT devices the most commonly used technology is RFID. Thus, securing the RFID tag by cryptographic mechanisms can secure our data at the device as well as during communication. This article first discusses the flaws of our previous ultra-lightweight protocol due to its vulnerability to passive secret disclosure attack. Then, the authors propose a new protocol to overcome the shortcomings of our previous work. The proposed scheme uses timestamps in addition to bitwise operation to provide security against de-synchronization and disclosure. This research also presents a security and performance analysis of our approach and its comparison with other existing schemes.

<span>Cloud Computing and the Internet of Things (IoT), two different technologies, are already part of our lives. Their impressive adoption increasing more and more, which makes them the future of the future internet. The tsunami of interconnectivity between objects and data collection is increasingly based on Cloud Computing, where data analysis and intelligence really reside. A new paradigm where the Cloud and the IoT are merged will create a new air in the world of technology, which can offer many services and applications useful to humanity. However, despite the great benefits that can bring this technology in term of new services, elasticity and flexibility, the security aspect still remains a serious constraint which hampers the expansion of this technology. This paper proposes a lightweight Mutual authentication protocol based on Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP); that is suitable for IoT devices than HTTP and using elliptic curve cryptography to secure data transmission between the Cloud and devices. We used the AVISPA tool to verify our proposed scheme.</span>

Care Problems

Wearable and portable medical devices are one of the fastest growing sectors in the Internet of Things (IoT) market. However, medical services specialize in the processing of personal health data, which carries issues that are not faced by other industries. In this paper, we propose a multi-dimensional color vector information based IoT device authentication protocol that can provide benefits for medical work, assuming that a hospital has the capability of integrating IoT devices and has access to patient information. The proposed protocol uses multi-dimensional color vectors to help users who use IoT devices to manage their condition in multiple groups, stochastically. In addition, the proposed protocol provides the health and medical service status of users to medical staff in real time using IoT authentication keys generated through the proposed multi-dimensional color vectors. The proposed protocol not only addresses health care problems yet to be tackled in the management of hospital and health services, but also minimizes administrative time and procedures for current medical services. As a result of the performance evaluation, the proposed protocol improved the efficiency of hospital IoT devices by an average of 31.1%, and the time delay for medical services was improved by 19.8%, compared to the existing protocol. By using the proposed protocol and IoT devices, the average overhead of healthcare providers could be reduced by as much as 15.3%.

Non-fungible tokens (NFTs) are widely used in blockchain to represent unique and non-interchangeable assets. Current NFTs allow representing assets by a unique identifier, as a possession of an owner. The novelty introduced in this paper is the proposal of smart NFTs to represent IoT devices, which are physical smart assets. Hence, they are also identified as the utility of a user, they have a blockchain account (BCA) address to participate actively in the blockchain transactions, they can establish secure communication channels with owners and users, and they operate dynamically with several modes associated with their token states. A smart NFT is physically bound to its IoT device thanks to the use of a physical unclonable function (PUF) that allows recovering its private key and, then, its BCA address. The link between tokens and devices is difficult to break and can be traced during their lifetime, because devices execute a secure boot and carry out mutual authentication processes with new owners and users that could add new software. Hence, devices prove their trusted hardware and software. A whole demonstration of the proposal developed with ESP32-based IoT devices and Ethereum blockchain is presented, using the SRAM of the ESP32 microcontroller as the PUF.
