Generally, approaches to build the security of Smart Home Systems (SHS) require big amount of data to implement Access Control and Intrusion Detection Systems, with storage in cloud, for instance, being a vulnerability to inhabitants privacy. Besides, most works rely on cloud computing or resources in the cloud to perform security tasks, what can be exploited by attackers. This work presents the ZASH (Zero-Aware Smart Home System), an Access Control for SHS. ZASH uses Continuous Authentication with Zero Trust, supported by real-time context and activity information, enabled by Edge Computing and Markov Chain, to prevent and mitigate impersonation attacks that aim to invade inhabitants privacy. An experimental evaluation demonstrated the system capability to dynamically adapt to new inhabitants behaviors withal blocking impersonation attacks.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
