Construction of Communication Protocol Using Ring-LWE-Based Homomorphic Encryption in Iot-Cloud Environment

The rapid development of wireless communication and sensor networks is the basis for forming an Internet of things(IoT) infrastructure. In IoT-based applications, the cryptographic encryption and access control at cloud must be robust to withstand current attacks. The majority of security protocols are based on integer factorization and discrete logarithm problems, which are proved vulnerable to quantum attacks. In this paper, we proposed a scheme for the security and privacy of the user data in a cloud environment. Various types of homomorphic encryption schemes are studied for data privacy in the cloud. The Ring-LWE-based encryption scheme is presented for privacy protection in the cloud which meets the homomorphic properties. The scheme is analysed for security, privacy, reduced messaging overhead and computation overhead. The objective of this paper is to Design and Construct a Ring-LWE-based homomorphic encryption(HE) communication protocol for authenticated user message encryption in a IoT cloud computing environment. The evaluation function in holomorphic encryption defined based on Ring-LWE encryption for a practical sharing-enabled cloud storage. Then, formally proving the security of the proposed protocol for classical and quantum attacks in cloud environment like Manin-the-middle (MITM) attack, Denial of Service (DoS) and Replay Attack

IoT Security Evolution: Challenges and Countermeasures Review

Internet of Things (IoT) architecture, technologies, applications and security have been recently addressed by a number of researchers. Basically, IoT adds internet connectivity to a system of intelligent devices, machines, objects and/or people. Devices are allowed to automatically collect and transmit data over the Internet, which exposes them to serious attacks and threats. This paper provides an intensive review of IoT evolution with primary focusing on security issues together with the proposed countermeasures. Thus, it outlines the IoT security challenges as a future roadmap of research for new researchers in this domain

A Systematic Review of IoT Communication Strategies for an Efficient Smart Environment

The massive increase in actuators, industrial devices, health-care devices, and sensors, have led to the implementation of the Internet of Things (IoT), fast and flexible information technology communication between the devices. As such, responding to the needs in speedily way, and matching the smart services with modified requirements, IoT communications have facilitated the interconnections of things between applications, users, and smart devices. In order to gain extra advantage of the numerous services of the Internet. In this paper, the authors first, provided a comprehensive analysis on the IoT communication strategies and applications for smart devices based on a Systematic Literature Review (SLR). Then, the communication strategies and applications are categorized into four main topics including device to device, device to cloud, device to gateway and device to application scenarios. Furthermore, a technical taxonomy is presented to classify the existing papers according to search-based methodology in the scientific databases. The technical taxonomy presents five categories for IoT communication applications including monitoring-based communications, routing-based communications, health-based communications, Intrusion-based communications, and resource-based communications. The evaluation factors and infrastructure attributes are discussed based on some technical questions. Finally, some new challenges and forthcoming issues of future IoT communications are presented
