Positive Effect

The Internet of Things (IoT) is increasingly affecting human lives in multiple profound ways. “Things” have the ability to communicate, generate, transmit and store data over the network connection. During each communication between “Things”, the data transmitted is potentially vulnerable to malicious attacks, loss, distortions and interruption which impair functionality, system efficiency and user satisfaction. Additionally, inappropriate user controls can cause problems in IoT services, such as granting anonymous users access to personal resources and enable legitimate users to access resources in an illegal manner or preventing legitimate users to access resources in an authorized manner. Therefore, communications between things need to be authenticated, authorized, secured and ensured to have high privacy by applying a strong authentication protocol. The aim of this research is to enhance the authentication protocol, starting by reducing the heavy use of storage in “Things”, and eliminating unnecessary messages during authentication steps, taking into consideration the network security analysis. This research represents a security performance analysis and enhancement authentication for the IoT. The results indicate that the enhanced protocol has a positive effect on minimizing packet length and time performance in authenticating users having once obtained access to the visited location area compared with the other two protocols used for comparative purposes, with 33% increased the proposed protocol performance.

The Internet of Things aims to assign computational processing and connection to simple objects on a network tocollect data and then perform analysis. Due to its easy use, simplified implementation has several informationsecurity problems. This article presents attack procedures in an IoT environment using the Message QueueTelemetry Transport protocol. For attack procedures, we use the Low Orbit Ion Cannon and Wireshark programs,compromising the integrity, confidentiality, and availability of data and network connection. After carrying outthe attack procedures, we implemented security methods on the network, such as data encryption and firewall toprotect data integrity and prevent network connection attacks

This chapter explores the encryption techniques used for the internet of things (IoT). The security algorithm used for IoT should follow many constraints of an embedded system. Hence, lightweight cryptography is an optimum security solution for IoT devices. This chapter mainly describes the need for security in IoT, the concept of lightweight cryptography, and various cryptographic algorithms along with their shortcomings given IoT. This chapter also describes the principle of operation of all the above algorithms along with their security analysis. Moreover, based on the algorithm size (i.e., the required number of gate equivalent, block size, key size, throughput, and execution speed of the algorithm), the chapter reports the comparative analysis of their performance. The chapter discusses the merits and demerits of these algorithms along with their use in the IoT system.

Security and privacy is always the most important issues by the public in the Internet of Things. The core problems are associated with the diversifying of the Internet towards an Internet of things, and the different requirements to the security level for application. Therefore, this paper is to put forward an authentication model and protocol to cope with the problem. The protocol is adopted with attribute-based encryption to replace the traditional identity-based encryption (IBE), and then make formalization analysis to the security of the protocol by using BAN logic.

With the increasing demand for intelligent services of the Internet of Things (IoT), its security issues have attracted widespread attention recently. Since most of the existing identity authentication policies are based on a single authentication mode, they are highly likely to cause problems such as illegal operation and stealing of sensor information. In order to meet the needs of increasing IoT users for the security management of intelligent services, a multi-point collaborative authentication method based on user image intelligent collection for the security problems faced by IoT in identity authentication is proposed in the paper. This method firstly collects the identity of the legal user through the intelligent collection technology and then realizes the identity authentication of the unidentified user through the collaborative authentication between the local domain management machine, the back-end image management machine, and the cloud server. Compared with the traditional single identity authentication method, our method uses three-party collaborative authentication to avoid the problem of sensor information stealing easily caused by a single authentication method, which makes the user’s identity authentication more secure and effective. The security analysis shows that the method is able to resist multiple attacks and prevent the sensor information from being illegally operated and stolen, protecting the security of the sensor information.

The Internet Of Things

In the Internet of things (IoT), the user authentication process is becoming more critical with the growing number of the services provided by IoT. Securing access to these services by the user authentication process leads to high security to prevent any attack on the IoT network. The approach keeps the private information secured efficiently and ensuring that only authorized users can access this information. The proposed scheme uses only Chaskey hash function and XOR operation. The security analysis proves that it is immune to different types of attacks. Furthermore, the scheme is faster, lighter on resources and energy consumption compared to other existing schemes. Finally, we compare the proposed scheme to several other existing schemes on several aspects highlighting main differences.
