The rapid development of the Internet of Things has made the issue of privacy protection even more concerning. Privacy protection has affected the large-scale application of the Internet of Things. Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) is a newly emerging public key encryption scheme, which can be used to prevent information leakage. It allows performing arbitrary algebraic operations on data which are encrypted, such that the operation performed on the ciphertext is directly transformed into the corresponding plaintext. Recently, overwhelming majority of FHE schemes are confined to single-bit encryption, whereas how to achieve a multibit FHE scheme is still an open problem. This problem is partially (rather than fully) solved by Hiromasa-Abe-Okamoto (PKC′15), who proposed a packed message FHE scheme which only supports decryption in a bit-by-bit manner. Followed by that, Li-Ma-Morais-Du (Inscrypt′16) proposed a multibit FHE scheme which can decrypt the ciphertext at one time, but their scheme is based on dual LWE assumption. Armed with the abovementioned two schemes, in this paper, we propose an efficient packed message FHE that supports the decryption in two ways: single-bit decryption and one-time decryption.

As a new area of technology, the Internet of Things (IoT) is a flagship and promising paradigm for innovating society. However, IoT-based critical infrastructures are an appealing target for cybercriminals. Such distinctive infrastructures are increasingly sensitive to cyber vulnerabilities and subject to many cyberattacks. Thus, protecting these infrastructures is a significant issue for organizations and nations. In this context, raising the cybersecurity posture of critical cyber infrastructures is an extremely urgent international issue. In addition, with the rapid development of adversarial techniques, current cyber threats have become more sophisticated, complicated, advanced and persistent. Thus, given these factors, prior to implementing efficient and resilient cybersecurity countermeasures, identification and in-depth mapping of cyber threats is an important step that is generally overlooked. Therefore, to solve cybersecurity challenges, this study presents a critical analysis of the most recent cybersecurity issues for IoT-based critical infrastructures. We then discuss potential cyber threats and cyber vulnerabilities and the main exploitation strategies adopted by cybercriminals. Further, we provide a taxonomy of cyberattacks that may affect critical cyber infrastructures. Finally, we present security requirements and some realistic recommendations to enhance cybersecurity solutions.

The article considers the method of increasing the security of Internet of Things technologies. Users fear the consequences of Internet security violations. Therefore, digital security must be designed from zero and at all points of the system so vulnerabilities do not jeopardize the whole system in a certain part. The risk must be reduced throughout the life cycle, especially in view of its scaling and geographical expansion. The Internet of Things consists of a large number of inexpensive devices. IoT devices usually have limited memory and battery power, which gives very limited computing and communication capabilities. The use of encryption/decryption algorithms should not require large resources, and the frequency range is limited. It is also a large-scale network that supports mass connections. Network transmission protocols must include many new features, such as multi-transient routing, shared relay, dynamic access, and other to meet this demand. It is extremely difficult to manage and distribute private keys with this network setup. A variety of usage scenarios require different QoS and security levels. Nowadays IoT plays an important role in many scenarios and has great potential for further dissemination. There is a need to increase the efficiency of a particular enterprise, processes, so the number of interactive things that create smart areas (houses, offices, warehouses, cities) is growing. The implementation of this areas reaches a variety of technologies, which vulnerable from the found attacks over time, leading to significant losses, as data and time. There are many suggestions that address target issue after finding a vulnerability, but this may not be effective enough. Therefore, it was proposed to create a method that can solve a set of problems simultaneously by combining PKI secure authentication and honeypots. It will not only detect new vulnerabilities and attacks faster, but also waste attackers' resources (all captured attacks will be identified and attacker profiles created).

Storage Solution

With the rapid development of the Internet of Things (IoT), the number of IoT devices has increased exponentially. Therefore, we have put forward higher security requirements for the management, transmission, and storage of massive IoT data. However, during the transmission process of IoT data, security issues, such as data theft and forgery, are prone to occur. In addition, most existing data storage solutions are centralized, i.e., data are stored and maintained by a centralized server. Once the server is maliciously attacked, the security of IoT data will be greatly threatened. In view of the above-mentioned security issues, a security transmission and storage solution is proposed about sensing image for blockchain in the IoT. Firstly, this solution intelligently senses user image information, and divides these sensed data into intelligent blocks. Secondly, different blocks of data are encrypted and transmitted securely through intelligent encryption algorithms. Finally, signature verification and storage are performed through an intelligent verification algorithm. Compared with the traditional IoT data transmission and centralized storage solution, our solution combines the IoT with the blockchain, making use of the advantages of blockchain decentralization, high reliability, and low cost to transfer and store users image information securely. Security analysis proves that the solution can resist theft attacks and ensure the security of user image information during transmission and storage.

Current trends towards the Future Internet are envisaging the conception of novel services endowed with context-aware and autonomic capabilities to improve end users’ quality of life. The Internet of Things paradigm is expected to contribute towards this ambitious vision by proposing models and mechanisms enabling the creation of networks of “smart things” on a large scale. It is widely recognized that efficient mechanisms for discovering available resources and capabilities are required to realize such vision. The contribution of this work consists in a novel discovery service for the Internet of Things. The proposed solution adopts a peer-to-peer approach for guaranteeing scalability, robustness, and easy maintenance of the overall system. While most existing peer-to-peer discovery services proposed for the IoT support solely exact match queries on a single attribute (i.e., the object identifier), our solution can handle multiattribute and range queries. We defined a layered approach by distinguishing three main aspects: multiattribute indexing, range query support, peer-to-peer routing. We chose to adopt an over-DHT indexing scheme to guarantee ease of design and implementation principles. We report on the implementation of a Proof of Concept in a dangerous goods monitoring scenario, and, finally, we discuss test results for structural properties and query performance evaluation.

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is one of the leading technologies in the Internet of Things (IoT) to create an efficient and reliable system to securely identify objects in many environments such as business, health, and manufacturing areas. Recent RFID authentication protocols have been proposed to satisfy the security features of RFID communication. In this article, we identify and review some of the most recent and enhanced authentication protocols that mainly focus on the authentication between a reader and a tag. However, the scope of this survey includes only passive tags protocols, due to the large scale of the RFID framework. We examined some of the recent RFID protocols in term of security requirements, computation, and attack resistance. We conclude that only five protocols resist all of the major attacks, while only one protocol satisfies all of the security requirements of the RFID system.

Purpose This study aims to understand their emergence and types of business models in the Internet of Things (IoT) ecosystems. Design/methodology/approach The paper builds upon a systematic literature review of IoT ecosystems and business models to construct a conceptual framework on IoT business models, and uses qualitative research methods to analyze seven industry cases. Findings The study identifies four types of IoT business models: value chain efficiency, industry collaboration, horizontal market and platform. Moreover, it discusses three evolutionary paths of new business model emergence: opening up the ecosystem for industry collaboration, replicating the solution in multiple services and return to closed ecosystem as technology matures. Research limitations/implications Identifying business models in rapidly evolving fields such as the IoT based on a small number of case studies may result in biased findings compared to large-scale surveys and globally distributed samples. However, it provides more thorough interpretations. Practical implications The study provides a framework for analyzing the types and emergence of IoT business models, and forwards the concept of “value design” as an ecosystem business model. Originality/value This paper identifies four archetypical IoT business models based on a novel framework that is independent of any specific industry, and argues that IoT business models follow an evolutionary path from closed to open, and reversely to closed ecosystems, and the value created in the networks of organizations and things will be shareable value rather than exchange value.
