Enhancing Security and Trust of IoT Devices-Internet of Secured Things (IoST)

摘要

Internet of things has infiltrated all corners of the world by providing distributed intelligence to all objects making them smart. From small wearables to smart homes to smart cities, IoT has proven to be a substantial part in all facets of life. Safety of the data collected from IoT devices that can make a whole city smarter is of utmost importance. On such a large scale, one malignant intrusion can lead to leakage of thousands of public data, thereby compromising privacy. On an international level, this leads to various complications in military, friendship among nations, suppressing terrorism, etc. Most of the current methods of securing IoT devices deal with the network and application layer. This paper deals with a simple yet very efficient method of securing IoT devices in the physical layer before it hits the market. These devices are called Internet of Secured Things (IoST) devices. It also takes into consideration the importance of variations in timing, power and area.
