The Internet Of Things

The future of Internet of Things (IoT) is already upon us. The Internet of Things (IoT) is the ability to provide everyday devices with a way of identification and another way for communication with each other. The spectrum of IoT application domains is very large including smart homes, smart cities, wearables, e-health, etc. Consequently, tens and even hundreds of billions of devices will be connected. Such devices will have smart capabilities to collect, analyze and even make decisions without any human interaction. Security is a supreme requirement in such circumstances, and in particular authentication is of high interest given the damage that could happen from a malicious unauthenticated device in an IoT system. While enjoying the convenience and efficiency that IoT brings to us, new threats from IoT also have emerged. There are increasing research works to ease these threats, but many problems remain open. To better understand the essential reasons of new threats and the challenges in current research, this survey first proposes the concept of “IoT features”. Then, the security and privacy effects of eight IoT new features were discussed including the threats they cause, existing solutions and challenges yet to be solved.

The researchers have been focusing on embedding security from the early phases of software development lifecycle. They have researched and innovated a field of Security Engineering where security concerns are embedded during requirement, design, and testing phases of software development. Efforts were made in developing methods, methodologies, and tools to handle security issues. Various methods are present in the literature for eliciting, analyzing and prioritizing the security requirements. During the design phase based on prioritized requirements, environment parameters and attribute a suitable security algorithm mainly cryptography algorithms are identified. Then a question arises how to test the effectiveness of chosen algorithm? Therefore, as an answer to the issue in this paper, a process for Security Testing is presented that evaluates the selected security algorithms. Evaluation is done by generating the test scenarios for functionalities using sequence diagram representing the threats at vulnerable points. Then, checking the mitigation of potential threats at identified vulnerable points. A security index is generated which shows the effectiveness of deployed/ chosen security algorithm. The process ends with the generation of a test report depicting the testing summary. For a clear understanding of the process, the proposal is illustrated with a case study of the cloud storage as a service model.

The inherent complexities of Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) architecture make its security and privacy issues becoming critically challenging. Numerous surveys have been published to review IoT security issues and challenges. The studies gave a general overview of IIoT security threats or a detailed analysis that explicitly focuses on specific technologies. However, recent studies fail to analyze the gap between security requirements of these technologies and their deployed countermeasure in the industry recently. Whether recent industry countermeasure is still adequate to address the security challenges of IIoT environment are questionable. This article presents a comprehensive survey of IIoT security and provides insight into today’s industry countermeasure, current research proposals and ongoing challenges. We classify IIoT technologies into the four-layer security architecture, examine the deployed countermeasure based on CIA+ security requirements, report the deficiencies of today’s countermeasure, and highlight the remaining open issues and challenges. As no single solution can fix the entire IIoT ecosystem, IIoT security architecture with a higher abstraction level using the bottom-up approach is needed. Moving towards a data-centric approach that assures data protection whenever and wherever it goes could potentially solve the challenges of industry deployment.

In vehicular networks, the increasing value of transportation data and scale of connectivity also brings many security and privacy concerns. Peer authentication and message integrity are two vital security requirements to ensure safe transportation system. Because of the constrained resources of the units performing the cryptographic components, the proposed security-enhancing schemes should be lightweight and scalable. In this paper, we present a multisignature scheme derived from the SM2 signature which enables a group of parties to collaboratively sign a message and generate a compact joint signature at the end. Our scheme requires no preprocessing or interactions among the parties before signing, and its performance matches or surpasses known ones in terms of signing time, verification time, and signature size. Therefore, our scheme is also suitable for vehicular networks, with the goal to enhance security with small computation and storage cost.
