    Cyber Physical Systems (CPS) comprises of the ubiquitous object concept those are connected with Internet to provide ability of data transmission and sensing over network. The smart appliances transmits the data through CPS devices with the implementation of Internet of Things (IoT) exhibits improved performance characteristics with significant advantages such as time savings, reduced cost, higher human comfort and efficient electricity utilization. In the minimal complexity sensor nodes cyber physical system is adopted for the heterogeneous environment for the wireless network connection between clients or hosts. However, the conventional security scheme uses the mechanisms for desktop devices with efficient utilization of resources in the minimal storage space environment, minimal power processing and limited energy backup. This paper proposed a Secure Honeynet key authentication (SHKA) model for security attack prevention through effective data monitoring with IoT 4G communication. The proposed SHKA model uses the lightweight key agreement scheme for authentication to provide security threats and confidentiality issues in CPS applications. With the implementation of SHKA HoneyNet model the data in IoT are monitored for security mechanism in IoT environment. The middleware module in SHKA scheme uses the Raspberry platform to establish internetworking between CPS device to achieve dynamic and scalability. The secure IoT infrastructure comprises of flexible evaluation of user-centric environment evaluation for the effectiveness. The developed SHKA model perform mutual authentication between CPS devices for minimal computation overhead and efficiency. The wireless channel uses the dynamic session key for the secure communication for cyber-attacks security with lightweight security in CPS system. The SHKA model demonstrate the effectiveness based on consideration of three constraints such as low power processing, reduced storage and minimal backup energy. Experimental analysis stated that proposed SHKA scheme provides lightweight end-to-end key establishment in every session. The CPS devices generates the session key of 128 bit long. The minimum key size is implemented to provide effective security in IoT 4G communication with minimal execution time. The simulation results demonstrated that SHKA model exhibits effective cyber-attacks for the constraint devices to improve performance of IoT network

    Wireless sensor networks which form part of the core for the Internet of Things consist of resource constrained sensors that are usually powered by batteries. Therefore, careful energy awareness is essential when working with these devices. Indeed,the introduction of security techniques such as authentication and encryption, to ensure confidentiality and integrity of data, can place higher energy load on the sensors. However, the absence of security protection c ould give room for energy drain attacks such as denial of sleep attacks which have a higher negative impact on the life span ( of the sensors than the presence of security features. This thesis, therefore, focuses on tackling denial of sleep attacks from two perspectives A security perspective and an energy efficiency perspective. The security perspective involves evaluating and ranking a number of security based techniques to curbing denial of sleep attacks. The energy efficiency perspective, on the other hand, involves exploring duty cycling and simulating three Media Access Control ( protocols Sensor MAC, Timeout MAC andTunableMAC under different network sizes and measuring different parameters such as the Received Signal Strength RSSI) and Link Quality Indicator ( Transmit power, throughput and energy efficiency Duty cycling happens to be one of the major techniques for conserving energy in wireless sensor networks and this research aims to answer questions with regards to the effect of duty cycles on the energy efficiency as well as the throughput of three duty cycle protocols Sensor MAC ( Timeout MAC ( and TunableMAC in addition to creating a novel MAC protocol that is also more resilient to denial of sleep a ttacks than existing protocols. The main contributions to knowledge from this thesis are the developed framework used for evaluation of existing denial of sleep attack solutions and the algorithms which fuel the other contribution to knowledge a newly developed protocol tested on the Castalia Simulator on the OMNET++ platform. The new protocol has been compared with existing protocols and has been found to have significant improvement in energy efficiency and also better resilience to denial of sleep at tacks Part of this research has been published Two conference publications in IEEE Explore and one workshop paper

    Towards NFC payments using a lightweight architecture for the Web of Things

    The Web (and Internet) of Things has seen the rapid emergence of new protocols and standards, which provide for innovative models of interaction for applications. One such model fostered by the Web of Things (WoT) ecosystem is that of contactless interaction between devices. Near Field Communication (NFC) technology is one such enabler of contactless interactions. Contactless technology for the WoT requires all parties to agree one common definition and implementation and, in this paper, we propose a new lightweight architecture for the WoT, based on RESTful approaches. We show how the proposed architecture supports the concept of a mobile wallet, enabling users to make secure payments employing NFC technology with their mobile devices. In so doing, we argue that the vision of the WoT is brought a step closer to fruition
