Security in internet of things Research challenges in internet of things protocols Introduction of security features of state of the art 6TiSCH and 6LoWPAN protocols As small devices are being integrated to the Internet, there is a growing interest toward technologies enabling this integration. Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) has been developing technologies such as 6LoWPAN, 6TiSCH to reliably include small devices into the Internet. The goal of these efforts is to create the next generation Internet where the small devices can communicate with each other over the Internet without complex network gateways. This new concept, which will be connecting billion of devices to each other over the Internet, is called the Internet of Things (IoT). As a result, the new Internet will be not only a network of personal computers, mobile devices and servers, but also it will include vehicles, house appliances, factories and wearable devices. As the small devices increasingly becomes the part of the Internet, billions of small devices will be the source and the destination of a large portion of the Internet traffic. A large portion of the Internet enabled embedded devices will have to face the security challenges put forward by Internet with limited resources. In this study, the protocols and mechanisms for securing IoT networks will be analyzed at each layer of the protocol stack. Figure A: Internet of Things usage areas Purpose: In this study, the protocols used for secure communication in the Internet technology of things are examined by considering the architectural structure of small devices. Theory and Methods: At each layer of the protocol stack, the challenges and possible solutions will be presented. Furthermore, the steps necessary for enabling a secure and dependable IoT will be outlined from the perspective of new protocols such as 6LoWPAN, 6TiSCH. experimental method or theory of the study should be given briefly. Results: As can be understood from the work done, the Internet of things should be considered an integral part of the security of the next generation Internet, and in this context solutions with low complexity and high reliability must be configured for the Internet networks of Things. Conclusion: Current asymmetric cryptographic techniques should be optimized to be usable in restricted devices and made compatible with IoT technology.
