Security Enhancements

Current research in Internet of Things (IoT) is focused on the security enhancements to every communicated message in the network. Keeping this thought in mind, researcher in this work emphasizes on a security oriented cryptographic solution. Commonly used security cryptographic solutions are heavy in nature considering their key size, operations, and mechanism they follow to secure a message. This work first determines the benefit of applying lightweight security cryptographic solutions in IoT. The existing lightweight counterparts are still vulnerable to attacks and also consume calculative more power. Therefore, this research work proposes a new hybrid lightweight logical security framework for offering security in IoT (LLSFIoT). The operations, key size, and mechanism used in the proposed framework make its lightweight. The proposed framework is divided into three phases: registration, authentication, and light data security (LDS). LDS offers security by using unique keys at each round bearing small size. Key generation mechanism used is comparatively fast making the compromise of keys as a difficult task. These steps followed in the proposed algorithm design make it lightweight and a better solution for IoT-based networks as compared to the existing solutions that are relatively heavy weight in nature.

<p>The convergence of microelectronics and micromechanical system within a sensing device, the proliferation of wireless communication, and the use of software-driven equipment are already changing the landscape of the manufacturing industries. This situation compels the industries to adopt industrial internet of things (IIoT) systems and processes with the main objective-to improve the processes and increase production. However, it is undeniable that despite IIoT advantages, it posed significant issues on the security and privacy on industry automation especially along data generation and control system. Hence, this paper proposes a cloud based 3-tier data security framework that performs two-level security verification processes. The framework has been tested and validated using an experimental industry automation system and has been found to be functionally effective with an acceptable handoff delay.</p>

Remote Patient

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a system of interrelated computing devices, mechanical and digital machines, objects, animals or people that are provided with unique identifiers and the ability to transfer data over a network without requiring human-to-human or human-to-computer interaction. Remote patient monitoring enables the monitoring of patients’ vital signs outside the conventional clinical settings which may increase access to care and decrease healthcare delivery costs. This paper focuses on implementing internet of things in a remote patient medical monitoring system. This was achieved by writing two computer applications in java in which one simulates a mobile phone called the Intelligent Personal Digital Assistant (IPDA) which uses a data structure that includes age, smoking habits and alcohol intake to simulate readings for blood pressure, pulse rate and mean arterial pressure continuously every twenty five which it sends to the server. The second java application protects the patients’ medical records as they travel through the networks by employing a symmetric key encryption algorithm which encrypts the patients’ medical records as they are generated and can only be decrypted in the server only by authorized personnel. The result of this research work is the implementation of internet of things in a remote patient medical monitoring system where patients’ vital signs are generated and transferred to the server continuously without human intervention.

Hadoop Framework

Background: In current scenario of internet, large amounts of data are generated and processed. Hadoop framework is widely used to store and process big data in a highly distributed manner. It is argued that Hadoop Framework is not mature enough to deal with the current cyberattacks on the data. Objective: The main objective of the proposed work is to provide a complete security approach comprising of authorisation and authentication for the user and the Hadoop cluster nodes and to secure the data at rest as well as in transit. Methods: The proposed algorithm uses Kerberos network authentication protocol for authorisation and authentication and to validate the users and the cluster nodes. The Ciphertext-Policy Attribute- Based Encryption (CP-ABE) is used for data at rest and data in transit. User encrypts the file with their own set of attributes and stores on Hadoop Distributed File System. Only intended users can decrypt that file with matching parameters. Results: The proposed algorithm was implemented with data sets of different sizes. The data was processed with and without encryption. The results show little difference in processing time. The performance was affected in range of 0.8% to 3.1%, which includes impact of other factors also, like system configuration, the number of parallel jobs running and virtual environment. Conclusion: The solutions available for handling the big data security problems faced in Hadoop framework are inefficient or incomplete. A complete security framework is proposed for Hadoop Environment. The solution is experimentally proven to have little effect on the performance of the system for datasets of different sizes.

Key Management Scheme

Security is one of the major concerns of the Internet of Things (IoT) wireless technologies. LoRaWAN is one of the emerging Low Power Wide Area Networks being developed for IoT applications. The latest LoRaWAN release v.1.1 has provided a security framework that includes data confidentiality protection, data integrity check, device authentication and key management. However, its key management part is only ambiguously defined. In this paper, a complete key management scheme is proposed for LoRaWAN. The scheme addresses key updating, key generation, key backup, and key backward compatibility. The proposed scheme was shown not only to enhance the current LoRaWAN standard, but also to meet the primary design consideration of LoRaWAN, i.e., low power consumption.
