Trust Management Framework for IOT Based P2P Objects

Abstract

The proliferation of physical objects connecting to the Internet leads to a novel paradigm called "Internet of Things (IoT)." The objects are equipped with microprocessors and transceivers for data acquisition and sensing the environment around them respectively. IoT is driven by distributed nature with pervasive presence. In such an environment, security and privacy are the major barriers and addressing these issues is vital for the penetration of IoT-based Medical devices. Traditional security solutions will not suffice to the needs of IoT-based resource constraint devices and pose potential limitations and patient safety issues. The paper proposes a novel approach for trust management framework called HEXAGON model, which represents the human notion of trust in the computational algorithm with six key factors Peer Recommendation, Operational Risk, Operational Cost, Reputation, Privacy, and Role and Identity management.

Dynamic distributed trust management scheme for the Internet of Things

“…This results in enabling the malicious node to deliberately misbehave in certain cases and thus such behavior cannot be detected as malicious. In [22], authors presented a distinctive trust management model namely HEXAGON which is based on the human concept of trust within the computational algorithm. Trust is computed considering reputation, privacy, peer recommendations, operational risk, operational cost, identity management, based on inference engine using fuzzy logic.…”
