Modeling and Analysis of IoT Energy Resource Exhaustion Attacks

摘要

Subjection of wireless Internet of Things (IoT) devices to energy resource exhaustion attacks gets increasing importance. Being stealthy enough for an attack target and systems of its monitoring such attacks are capable to exhaust energy of the device in a relatively short period and thereby impair the function and availability of the device. The paper analyzes possible types of ERE attacks, proposes an intruder model regarding this kind of attacks and provides experimental studies on the basis of a developed use case.
