“…In other words, the end node has to use only one AppKey for a lifetime. As pointed out in several previous IoT security studies [8][9][10], we have to prepare for key leakage, which can have various causes, such as node capture attacks and side channel attacks.…”

“…Moreover, the damage from security incidents can be unprecedentedly enormous due to the large scale and connectivity of the IoT environment. To prepare for this situation, previous studies on IoT security [8][9][10] have addressed some important factors, one of which is key management. According to the research, cryptographic keys can be leaked through various attacks, considering that IoT sensing devices are usually deployed where the attacker can access them.…”

With the advent of the Internet of Things (IoT) era, we are experiencing rapid technological progress. Billions of devices are connected to each other, and our homes, cities, hospitals, and schools are getting smarter and smarter. However, to realize the IoT, several challenging issues such as connecting resource-constrained devices to the Internet must be resolved. Recently introduced Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) technologies have been devised to resolve this issue. Among many LPWAN candidates, the Long Range (LoRa) is one of the most promising technologies. The Long Range Wide Area Network (LoRaWAN) is a communication protocol for LoRa that provides basic security mechanisms. However, some security loopholes exist in LoRaWAN's key update and session key generation. In this paper, we propose a dual key-based activation scheme for LoRaWAN. It resolves the problem of key updates not being fully supported. In addition, our scheme facilitates each layer in generating its own session key directly, which ensures the independence of all layers. Real-world experimental results compared with the original scheme show that the proposed scheme is totally feasible in terms of delay and battery consumption.

“…The communication scenario between the IoT devices and the Internet/data server may vary based on applications. For instance, a WMS-based IoT application might use a hand-held device like a smart-phone as the gateway device [97]. A larger application like a weather monitoring system might use dedicated gateway devices for specific regions.…”

With the advancement of ubiquitous computing under the hood of Internet of Things (IoT) and Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS), the number of connected devices is expected to grow exponentially in the following decade. Pervasive sensing is the backbone of any IoT/CPS application. Billions of connected devices each having multiple sensors will lead us to the age of trillion sensors. Widespread use of sensors in critical applications (e.g., smart grid, agricultural industry, food production, etc.) will present us with unique challenges. Identifying the threats well before they occur will be the key in the race against the threats posed by the adversaries in the age of trillion sensors (TSensors). In this paper, we present a detailed survey of the trends toward trillion sensors, and their applicability in recent connected applications. We identify several key areas, that need to be addressed to build a secure connected environment. There are several challenges and limitations as well which are expected to rise in the coming decade. We must be proactive in addressing those challenges to make a safe and secure environment.

With the feature of spatial variety and low price, accommodative arrangement is a trend for the future communicating. In the radio communicating arrangement, there survive degradation components such as indicate fading, multipath transmission, indicate inferences, bandwidth restriction and so on. In addition to these eroding factors, the wire-less contagion is not ensuring surroundings. The data might be leaked out throughout the transmission. Presently, the issues of privacy and protection have become more and more important for the cell phone users. Traditionally, the protection strategy is enforced to the higher network layer. Encoding can be complex and hard without infrastructure. It is not desirable to employ to the instrumentality with low calculating assets, such as Internet of Things (IoT) application program. Within data theoretic protection qualifies the central ability of the physical layer to allow for a assure contagion. Hence, this work focuses on the assure accommodative communicating arrangement. Supported on the Shannon third theorem on channel capacity, this act examines the privacy content among the source post and the destination post. For a virtual situation in the arrangement, the scenario admits multiple source stations, multiple relay stations, multiple destination stations, and eavesdroppers. For the positive privacy grade consideration, the maximum mutual data between the source station and the destination station and the minimal mutual data between the source station and the eavesdropper should be held. To ensure a assure communicating, the gained theoretical solution could be enforced to find the optimal relay assigning. Beyond the relay choice, some issues related the assure concerted communicatings are suggested for the future searches in the final.
