Device Access Control and Key Exchange (DACK) Protocol for Internet of Things

Abstract

Internet of Things is a promising technology but it also increases numerous security threats in data transmission. To secure neighboring sensing devices' communication in an IoT environment, a key agreement protocol is primordial. Various IoT data transmission mechanisms have been proposed in the literature to attain security. However, these propositions are not completely secure against all types of attacks. In this paper, a new certificate-based was proposed lightweight authentication and key agreement protocol for the IoT environment. The proposed protocol uses Elliptic Curves Cryptography and minimizes the number of operations needed to generate secret keys. Moreover, performed a detailed informal security analysis, and formal security verification using Automated Validation of Internet Security Protocols and Applications (AVISPA) tool, through which demonstrated that the proposed protocol is resilient against numerous known attacks. The implementation of the proposed protocol using the simulator to evaluate the impact of the proposed protocol on several network parameters.

Enhancement of UAV Data Security and Privacy Via Ethereum Blockchain Technology

“…The paper suggested a new methodology that reduces the number of operations required to produce secret keys by utilizing elliptic curve cryptography [54]. The next step has been the presentation of research difficulties and future directions for further developing the suggested system [55,56].…”

6G Wireless Communication Networks

“…It is predicted that 4G may arrive at the bottleneck before 2020, and 5G might be 2030. However, the upcoming wireless network system is being evolved based on recent advances in wireless and networking systems such as software-defined networking and virtualization in 5G and Artificial Intelligence (AI), Internet of Thing (IoT), Internet of Everything (IoE) and Virtual Reality need high reliability, low latency and ultra-high-speed for the uploading and downloading in 6G (Ahmad & Afzal, 2020) (Almrezeq et al, 2022). 5G has higher bit rates with more than 10 gigabits per second than previous technologies, more capacity, and low latency.…”
