The Internet Of Things

In recent years, the concept of the Internet of Things has been introduced. Information, communication, and network technology can be integrated, so that the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) from consumer leisure and entertainment toys can be utilized in high value commercial, agricultural, and defense field applications, and become a killer product. In this paper, a traceable and privacy-preserving authentication is proposed to integrate the elliptic curve cryptography (ECC), digital signature, hash function, and other cryptography mechanisms for UAV application. For sensitive areas, players must obtain flight approval from the ground control station before they can control the UAV in these areas. The traditional cryptography services such as integrity, confidentiality, anonymity, availability, privacy, non-repudiation, defense against DoS (Denial-of-Service) attack, and spoofing attack can be ensured. The feasibility of mutual authentication was proved by BAN logic. In addition, the computation cost and the communication cost of the proposed scheme were analyzed. The proposed scheme provides a novel application field.

Security of the Internet of Things is a crucial topic, due to the criticality of the networks and the sensitivity of exchanged data. In this paper, we target the Message Queue Telemetry Transport (MQTT) protocol used in IoT environments for communication between IoT devices. We exploit a specific weakness of MQTT which was identified during our research, allowing the client to configure the behavior of the server. In order to validate the possibility to exploit such vulnerability, we propose SlowITe, a novel low-rate denial of service attack aimed to target MQTT through low-rate techniques. We validate SlowITe against real MQTT services, considering both plain text and encrypted communications and comparing the effects of the threat when targeting different daemons. Results show that the attack is successful and it is able to exploit the identified vulnerability to lead a DoS on the victim with limited attack resources.

Stolen Verifier Attack

Nowadays, we can easily obtain variety of services through network. But due to the open environment, networks are vulnerable to variety of security threats. Ramasamy et al. proposed a discrete logarithm based remote authentication scheme with smart cards. Their scheme provides mutual authentication and withstanding the denial of service attack, forgery attack, parallel session attack and smart card loss attack. In this article, we show that their scheme is not a practical solution for remote accessing. It also lacks key agreement mechanism; and users cannot update password freely. Moreover, their scheme cannot resist the stolen verifier attack and off-line guessing attack.

The internet of things is the decentralized type of network in which sensor devices can join or leave the network when they want. Due to such nature of the network malicious nodes enter the network which affects network performance in terms of certain parameters. This research work is based on the detection and isolation of distributed denial of service attack in internet of things. The distributed denial of service attack is the denial of service type attack which affects network performance to large extent. In the existing techniques there are two main drawbacks. The first drawback is that the technique does not pin point malicious nodes from the network. The second drawback is that the malicious node detection time is very high. In this research, the new technique will be proposed for the isolation of malicious nodes from the network. In this technique, similarity of the traffic is analyzed using the cosine similarity. The sensor node which is generated dissimilar type of traffic is detected as malicious nodes. The proposed technique has been implemented in MATLAB and results have been analyzed in terms of certain parameters. It is expected that proposed technique detect malicious nodes in least amount of time.
