Securing Internet of Things (IoT) applications that collect and transport sensitive data by guaranteeing authenticity, integrity, and confidentiality is a critical challenge. Reducing computation and communication overhead of security functions is also a key concern since a large number of constrained devices may take place in such applications. Our main focus in this paper is group authentication and key management in IoT. The existing group authentication and key management protocols in the literature perform computations using asymmetric ciphers, which costly for IoT. Therefore, applications generally employ simple security primitives that are prone to or lead to cyber-attacks by using IoT devices. In this paper, we propose a physically unclonable function (PUF) based lightweight group authentication and key distribution (PLGAKD) protocol that employs PUF, factorial tree, and the Chinese Remainder Theorem (CRT). In PLGAKD, PUF facilitates lightweight authentication and key distribution for group members. Each group member performs 2 encryptions, 1 decryption, 4 XORs operations, and 3 HMAC operations. For the key renewal process, the factorial tree and CRT help us reduce the number of keys stored in nodes and the number of communication messages contrary to the binary tree. As an example, a binary tree with 4096 members completes the key renewal process with 12 messages by storing 12 keys. However, the PLGAKD protocol with 5040 members completes this process with 6 messages by storing 7 keys. Moreover, the PLGAKD protocol becomes more efficient in parallel with the increase in the number of members.

EPICS: A Framework for Enforcing Security Policies in Composite Web Services Ranchal, Rohit; Bhargava, Bharat; Angın, Pelin; ben Othmane, Lotfi (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2019-05-01) With advances in cloud computing and the emergence of service marketplaces, the popularity of composite services marks a paradigm shift from single-domain monolithic systems to cross-domain distributed services, which raises important privacy and security concerns. Access control becomes a challenge in such systems because authentication, authorization and data disclosure may take place across endpoints that are not known to clients. The clients lack options for specifying policies to control the sharing of...
SWARM-based data delivery in Social Internet of Things Hasan, Mohammed Zaki; Al-Turjman, Fadi (Elsevier BV, 2019-03-01) Social Internet of Things (SIoTs) refers to the rapidly growing network of connected objects and people that are able to collect and exchange data using embedded sensors. To guarantee the connectivity among these objects and people, fault tolerance routing has to be significantly considered. In this paper, we propose a bio-inspired particle multi-swarm optimization (PMSO) routing algorithm to construct, recover and select k-disjoint paths that tolerates the failure while satisfying quality of service (QoS) ...

Energy efficient wireless unicast routing alternatives for machine-to-machine networks Tekbiyik, Neyre; Uysal, Elif (Elsevier BV, 2011-09-01) Machine-to-machine (M2M) communications is a new and rapidly developing technology for large-scale networking of devices without dependence on human interaction. Energy efficiency is one of the important design objectives for machine-to-machine network architectures that often contain multihop wireless subnetworks. Constructing energy-efficient routes for sending data through such networks is important not only for the longevity of the nodes which typically depend on battery energy, but also for achieving a...
IFOOD: An intelligent fuzzy object-oriented database architecture Koyuncu, M; Yazıcı, Adnan (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2003-09-01) Next generation information system applications require powerful and intelligent information management that necessitates an efficient interaction between database and knowledge base technologies. It is also important for these applications to incorporate uncertainty in data objects, in integrity constraints, and/or in application. In this study, we propose an intelligent object-oriented database architecture, IFOOD, which permits the flexible modeling and querying of complex data and knowledge including un...
