In recent years, the growth of IoT applications is rapid in nature and widespread across several domains. This tremendous growth of IoT applications leads to various security and privacy concerns. The existing security algorithms fail to provide improved security features across IoT devices due to its resource constrained nature (inability to handle a huge amount of data). In this context, the authors propose a cloud-assisted proxy re-encryption scheme for efficient data sharing across IoT systems. The proposed approach solves the root extraction problem using near-ring. This improves the security measures of the system. The security analysis of the proposed approach states that it provides improved security with lesser computational overheads.

Blockchain technology, which would be the underlying technology, has recently become very popular with the increase in cryptocurrencies and is being used in IoT and other fields. There have been shortfalls, however, which impede its implementation, including the volume of space. Transactions will be produced at a significant level due to the huge amount of Connected systems that often work in many networks as data processors. In IoT, the storage issue will become more intense. Current storing data platforms have a wide range of features to respond to an extensive variety spectrum of uses. Nevertheless, new groups of systems have arisen, e.g., blockchain with data version control, fork semantics, tamper-evidence or some variation thereof, and distributed analysis. They're showing new challenges for storage solutions to effectively serve such energy storage Systems by integrating the criteria mentioned in the processing. This paper discusses the potential security and privacy concerns of IoT applications and also it is shown that in first step the storage is enhanced by 50% and further in the next step, it is improved and it takes only 256 bytes irrespective of the input data size.

Internet of things has gathered significance within the latest technology domain and trends. As a result, it offers greater ways of accessing data and utilizing intelligent systems. IoT applications are developed for specific scenarios (i.e., smart home, smart transportation, smart agriculture, e-health, etc.). Such IoT applications are inefficient for sharing data and knowledge through services. This results in an inefficient exploitation of different IoT service applications. Social internet of things (SIoT) has efficient and effective ways to support these kinds of services. A concept of social internet of things has been proposed in this chapter in order to support efficient data sharing. This chapter explores related work and literature study on social internet of things, concentrates on mapping IoT with SIoT, and describes a possible architecture for SIoT, components, layers and processes of SIoT. It also illustrates applications, where SIoT can be used, and at the end, the authors provide a few challenges related to SIoT.

With the growing development of Internet technology and popularization of mobile devices, we easily access the Internet anytime and anywhere by mobile devices. It has brought great convenience for our lives. But it brought more challenges than traditional wired communication, such as confidentiality and privacy. In order to improve security and privacy protection in using mobile network, numerous multi-receiver identity-based encryption schemes have been proposed with bilinear pairing and probabilistic hap-to-point (HTP) function. To address the troubles of private key escrow in multi-receiver encryption scheme based on ID-PKC, recently, some certificateless anonymous multi-receiver encryption (CLAMRE) schemes are introduced. But previous CLAMRE schemes using the bilinear pairing are not suitable to mobile device because the use of bilinear pairing and probabilistic hash-to-point (HTP) function results in expensive operation costs in encryption or decryption. In this paper, we propose an efficient CLAMRE scheme using elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) without bilinear pairing and HTP hash function. Since our scheme does not use bilinear pairing and HTP operation during the encryption and decryption process, the proposed CLAMRE scheme has much less computation cost than the latest CLAMRE schemes. Performance analysis shows that runtime of our scheme is much less when the sender generates ciphertext, compared with existing schemes. Security analysis shows proposed CLAMRE scheme provides confidentiality of message and receiver anonymity under the random oracle model with the difficulties of decision Diffie-Hellman problem and against the adversaries defined in CL-PKC system.

The automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast (ADS-B) system is the backbone of the next-gen air traffic control (ATC) modernization plan. Unfortunately, ADS-B system suffers from serious cyber-security vulnerabilities due to the open broadcast of aircraft data, without regard to message confidentiality. However, using common encryption scheme to provide confidentiality of ADS-B data is not a good solution, because encrypting data with ordinary cryptosystem would violate the original openness intention of ADS-B system design. In this paper, based on the new format-preserving encryption (FPE), we present an efficient data encryption scheme for the ADS-B data. The security analysis demonstrates that our scheme can achieve confidentiality of ADS-B data. The performance evaluation shows that the scheme is computationally efficient for the typical avionics devices with limited resources.
