Secure Communication Model for Constrained Internet of Things Devices
Keywords:
Security, Communications, Internet of Things, Symmetric cryptosystem, Asymmetric cryptosystemAbstract
Internet of Things (IoT) devices are rapidly on the way to becoming a necessary component of our daily life. These tools are efficient at accomplishing a particular task because of their specialized abilities. The IoT platform involves a variety of devices, from less resource-constrained to wireless sensors. These devices are vulnerable to network and hardware/software assaults. Securing communication with constrained IoT devices is crucial to maintaining the privacy of user sensitive information. This study suggested an approach for data protection and secure connectivity that can be deployed as an IoT security system. A symmetric approach is used to encrypt plaintext data devices before storing, and an asymmetric cryptosystem is used for protecting the cloud services and IoT service gateway. The encrypted data can be stored/retrieved based on cloud service requests. Also, plain-text data appears on the client interface whenever needed. Performance measurement of Message Queue Telemetry Transport (MQTT) and Hyper Text Transfer Protocol (HTTP) are illustrated. The outcomes indicate the way the framework works to reduce security threats and guarantee the integrity of the presented IoT model.
