“…According to [9], the authentication mechanism for WSN applications can be summarized as password based remote authentication using ticket. However, most of the work has sole purpose of enabling end-user authentication in generic WSN architecture and it does not provide the extensibility for the key establishment which is greatly important for secure communication.…”

“…In [10][11], the authors proposed broadcast authentication protocol for WSN. Another ticket based authentication mechanism was proposed in [9], for ubiquitous collaboration in heterogeneous computing environment, which is not applicable to the high resource constrained device due to the large memory consumption. Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) is an adaptation of TLS protocol and it provides an equal communication security TLS diagram protocols [12].…”

Recent advances in information and communication technologies and embedded systems have given rise to a new disruptive technology: the Internet of Things (IoT). IoT allows people and objects in the physical world as well as data and virtual environments to interact with each other so as to create smart environments such as smart transport systems, smart cities, smart health, etc., However, IoT raises some important questions and also introduces new challenges for the security of systems and processes and the privacy of individuals such as their location and movements etc. In this article, at first we propose a distributed IoT system architecture. Subsequently, we propose an anonymous authentication scheme, which can ensure some of the notable properties like sensor anonymity, sensor untraceability, resistance to replay attacks, cloning attacks, etc. It is argued that the proposed authentication scheme will be useful in many distributed IoT applications (like RFID based IoT system, Bio-sensor based IoT healthcare system etc.), where privacy of the sensor movement is greatly desirable.

“…[8] proposed the authentication protocol in WSNs for the distributed IoT using the master key. Further research proposed by [9] discussed the authentication protocol in WSN application using ticket. Unfortunately, most of those researchers only proposed the user authentication, and do not offer mutual authentication and key establishment between device and server, in which it is imperative for the communication security [10].…”

This disruptive era has a significant impact on the developing technologies in human beings, such as Internet of Things (IoT). IoT allows people and devices to transmit their data, hence intelligent environments, such as intelligent healthcare system, smart transportation, smart city, etc, are invented. Unfortunately, the wireless-based communication used by IoT opens an adversary to eavesdrop, delete, and alter the data transmitted to each device. In additional, the adversary can perform severe attacks, such as cloning, impersonation, and others. On the other hand, IoT opens a new challenge for achieving the security properties in preserving privacy in untraceable and unclonable device movement. This paper proposed the unclonable and untraceable sensor movement in the distributed IoT environments to resolve the aforementioned problems. The informally and formally analyses were used to ensure that our proposal has achieved security features and withstood from various attacks. Later, a comparison with the related protocols in the computational complexity will make our proposed protocol suitable for the IoT environment.

“…Exploitation of a master key for entity authentication for pervasive computing environments would be also a feasible approach to IoT enabled WSNs [13]. According to [14], the authentication mechanisms for WSN applications can be summarized as password based, remote user authentication using one-way hash functions and ticket based authentication. However, most of the work has the sole purpose of enabling end-user authentication in generic WSN architecture and it does not provide the extensibility for the key establishment.…”

Wireless sensor Networks (WSNs) deployed in distributed Internet of Things (IoT) applications should be integrated into the Internet. According to the distributed architecture, sensor nodes measure data, process, exchange information, and perform collaboratively with other sensor nodes and end-users, which can be internal or external to the network. In order to maintain the trustworthy connectivity and the accessibility of distributed IoT, it is important to establish secure links for end-to-end communication with a strong pervasive authentication mechanism. However, due to the resource constraints and heterogeneous characteristics of the devices, traditional authentication and key management schemes are not effective for such applications. This paper proposes a pervasive lightweight authentication and keying mechanism for WSNs in distributed IoT applications, in which the sensor nodes can establish secured links with peer sensor nodes and end-users. The established authentication scheme PAuthKey is based on implicit certificates and it provides application level end-to-end security. A comprehensive description for the scenario based behavior of the protocol is presented. With the performance evaluation and the security analysis, it is justified that the proposed scheme is viable to deploy in the resource constrained WSNs.
