Implementation of Common Secure Framework for IoT based Arduino Platform

摘要

In the recent years, everything like refrigerators, cars, fans, lights, sprinklers are interconnected to create a better world for human beings, these devices are now collectively called the Internet of Things (IoT). While IoT have made life easier, they have also created new attack area for hackers especially internal attack issues. The number of connected IoT devices constantly increases and becomes more pervasive in our lives, this implies that the security concerns must also constantly increase, especially when considering multiple IoT devices in an interconnected home or business. There is a need for devices trust to be robust enough to be connected without denial of service threats. The traditional security services are not directly applied on IoT due to the devices run on different platforms and uses different protocols to communicate, especially when the wireless or wire system need to communicate with other devices without human intervention as a machine to machine interaction. There is a need for a new framework to apply the security services on M2M communication architecture. So a flexible and common security framework is need to be implemented, which deals with security threats in IoT environment. This paper presents detailed information about the security issues related to IoT, and implement a secure framework based Arduino platform to enforce a flexible level of authentication in IoT environment.
