Current State of Art in Security of Data Aggregator in Smart Grids

Abstract

Abstract:Multiple sensor nodes known as detection stations make the sensor networks; each node is light and portable. Every sensor node contains power source, microcomputer, transducer and transceiver. Power source provides power to each node. Micro-computer is used for storing and processing the output coming from the sensors. The transducer is used to generate the signals and the transceiver is used to receive and transmit data to the central computer. Eavesdropping gets facilitated with wireless communication, and it has many useful applications in military, homeland, hostile and uncontrolled environments. So it is prone to the high level of security. The process in which information is gathered to form a summarized type for analysis is known as data aggregation, as it is used to reduce the energy consumption in wireless sensor networks. The security issues have become crucial in data aggregation, especially when gets deployed in hostile and remote environment. In wireless sensor networks many secure aggregations have been proposed. It still faces some resource constrained that's why new techniques are needed. In our survey we will discuss those approaches and their pros and cons.

From Conventional to State-of-the-Art IoT Access Control Models

“…Policies are made according to the access control models. Informally, access control tells "who can access what", and it is the fundamental part of the information security [4]. Basic risks in the security of information include Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability (CIA).…”
