“…The payload of an encrypted message is proportional to the size of the encryption key. For instance, the payload size and required encryption key size for ECC NIST P-256 and ECC NIST P-384 are both 256 and 384 bits, respectively [173]. Regrettably, ECC necessitates more computing power and memory than alternative public key techniques.…”

The emergence of the Internet of Things (IoT) technology has brought about tremendous possibilities, but at the same time, it has opened up new vulnerabilities and attack vectors that could compromise the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of connected systems. Developing a secure IoT ecosystem is a daunting challenge that requires a systematic and holistic approach to identify and mitigate potential security threats. Cybersecurity research considerations play a critical role in this regard, as they provide the foundation for designing and implementing security measures that can address emerging risks. To achieve a secure IoT ecosystem, scientists and engineers must first define rigorous security specifications that serve as the foundation for developing secure devices, chipsets, and networks. Developing such specifications requires an interdisciplinary approach that involves multiple stakeholders, including cybersecurity experts, network architects, system designers, and domain experts. The primary challenge in IoT security is ensuring the system can defend against both known and unknown attacks. To date, the IoT research community has identified several key security concerns related to the architecture of IoT systems. These concerns include issues related to connectivity, communication, and management protocols. This research paper provides an all-inclusive and lucid review of the current state of anomalies and security concepts related to the IoT. We classify and analyze prevalent security distresses regarding IoT’s layered architecture, including connectivity, communication, and management protocols. We establish the foundation of IoT security by examining the current attacks, threats, and cutting-edge solutions. Furthermore, we set security goals that will serve as the benchmark for assessing whether a solution satisfies the specific IoT use cases.

“…The simulation results of the proposed scheme are discussed in this section. To evaluate the level of safety of various cryptographic protocols and establish the degree to which they are safe, AVISPA software is used as a simulator 35 . OFMC and CL‐AtSe add an intruder into the middle of the conversation who can retain the communications and resend them.…”

SummaryThe dew computing is currently considered as one of the promising technology, due to its ability to give data access in the absence of internet. However, dew computing also brings new challenges, particularly security and privacy issues. In dew computing paradigm, authentication and key agreement pose substantial challenges that must be taken into account. In this context, the present work is to provide a secure authentication scheme for Internet of Things and dew server based on elliptic curve cryptography. Moreover, the performance evaluation of proposed scheme has been assessed in terms of communication and computation cost, which shows the proposed scheme outperforms than existing related schemes. The proposed scheme has also been compared with the related schemes in terms of various security features such as location privacy, anonymity, forward secrecy, mutual authentication, key agreement, forgery attack, replay attack, denial of service attack and replay attack. Furthermore, the formal security evaluation has been verified by automated validation internet security protocols and applications (AVISPA) under on‐the‐fly model‐checker (OFMC) and constraint logic based attack searcher (CL‐AtSE) backends. The OFMC backend analyzed 228 visited nodes with four plies using search time of 0.24 s. The CL‐AtSE analyzed three states with translation time of 0.12 s. The OFMC and CL‐AtSE backends have not identified any attack trace. Therefore, the simulation results demonstrate that the proposed scheme is safe against the security threats.

Development of a Lightweight Centralized Authentication Mechanism for the Internet of Things Driven by Fog

The rapid development of technology has made the Internet of Things an integral element of modern society. Modern Internet of Things’ implementations often use Fog computing, an offshoot of the Cloud computing that offers localized processing power at the network’s periphery. The Internet of Things serves as the inspiration for the decentralized solution known as Fog computing. Features such as distributed computing, low latency, location awareness, on-premise installation, and support for heterogeneous hardware are all facilitated by Fog computing. End-to-end security in the Internet of Things is challenging due to the wide variety of use cases and the disparate resource availability of participating entities. Due to their limited resources, it is out of the question to use complex cryptographic algorithms for this class of devices. All Internet of Things devices, even those connected to servers online, have constrained resources such as power and processing speed, so they would rather not deal with strict security measures. This paper initially examines distributed Fog computing and creates a new authentication framework to support the Internet of Things environment. The following authentication architecture is recommended for various Internet of Things applications, such as healthcare systems, transportation systems, smart buildings, smart energy, etc. The total effectiveness of the method is measured by considering factors such as the cost of communication and the storage overhead incurred by the offered integrated authentication protocol. It has been proven that the proposed technique will reduce communication costs by at least 11%.
