The Internet of Things (IoT) is a global ecosystem of information and communication technologies aimed at connecting any type of object (thing), at any time and in any place, to each other and to the Internet. One of the major problems associated with the IoT is maintaining security; the heterogeneous nature of such deployments poses a challenge to many aspects of security, including security testing and analysis. In addition, there is no existing mechanism that performs security testing for IoT devices in different contexts. In this paper, we propose an innovative security testbed framework targeted at IoT devices. The security testbed supports both standard and context-based security testing, with a set of security tests conducted under the different environmental conditions in which IoT devices operate. The requirements and architectural design of the proposed testbed are discussed, and the testbed operation is demonstrated in several testing scenarios.

Wireless Indoor localization systems based on RSSIvalues typically consist of an offline training phase and online position determination phase. During the offline phase, georeferenced RSSI measurements, called fingerprints, are recorded to build a radiomap of the building. This radiomap is then searched during the position determination phase to estimate another nodes' location. Usually the radiomap is build manually, either by users pin-pointing their location on a ready-made floorplan or by moving in pre-specified patterns while scanning the network for RSSI values. This cumbersome process leads to inaccuracies in the radiomap. Here, we propose a system to build the floorplan and radio-map simultaneously by employing a handheld laser mapping system in an IEEE802.15.4-compatible network. This makes indoor-and radio-mapping for wireless localization less cumbersome, faster, more reliable and delivers a new way to evaluate wireless localization systems.
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.
