Abstract:
The IP-based Internet of Things (IoT) stands for the universal
interconnection of smart objects and back end users with the help of
IP protocols. Secure key management among the smart objects is an
important aspect of IoT security. Due to the high levels of resource
constraints of the devices in terms of memory, battery capacity and
CPU power, and other network characteristics such as mobility,
scalability, heterogeneity and limited bandwidth, the conventional
security protocols cannot be directly deployed in IoT networks in
their raw formats. We propose a lightweight DTLS-based keying
mechanism for CoAP IoT smart objects which supports the scalability
of the network and node mobility. The protocol consumes less device
resources and minimum network bandwidth by incurring low message
overhead. The smart objects can securely access the network and
obtain certificates after an initial configuration irrespective of
the manufacturer standards.
