Consumer Contracts, Copyright Licensing, and Control over Data on the Internet of Things

This article presents our interdisciplinary analysis of end-user license agreements and privacy policies from a sample of 22 consumer goods/services connected to the Internet of Things (IoT). We gathered data in the form of legal documents and assessed them from legal and economic perspectives. We developed an original taxonomy of IoT-connected consumer goods/services, classified different business models built around them, and reviewed legal terms and conditions related to their use. Our analysis identifies copyright related restrictions and brings to light issues beyond copyright that merit consideration in the context of a review of copyright law and policy. First, we find that even obtaining legal information on smart products, including software license restrictions and other copyright limitations, is a difficult and time-consuming exercise. Second, our analysis of business models shows interoperability of platforms within an ecosystem of third-party devices and applications, but restrictions that limit interoperability across ecosystems. Third, terms and conditions of consumer use of smart devices in our sample are set up to allow for the collection and transfer of personal data, often sensitive data, in addition to all data collected by the companies from other sources such as social media. Fourth, our study shows that software licensing is now common practice among smart device manufacturers. Based on these findings, we make recommendations to address the issues of accessibility of legal information, data portability, interoperability of systems, and competition. We recommend that governments cooperate with industry, consumer, and public interest groups to: (1) promote labelling standards to help consumers locate and understand the terms on which they acquire and use IoT products and services; (2) support open standards and protocols to facilitate interoperability across platforms; (3) integrate data portability and related issues with ongoing discussions about not only copyright reform but also reforms to privacy laws and other digital rights; and (4) take seriously the relevant recommendations of the Parliamentary Committee for revision to the Copyright Act

Mitigating Threats in IoT Network using Device Isolation

In recent years, the proliferation of the Internet of Things (IoT) is seen across various sectors. There is a sharp inclination towards using IoT devices in both home and office premises. Many traditional manufacturers are enhancing their traditional appliances into IoT devices. With the myriad of devices in the market, there also exist vulnerable devices which can be exploited by adversaries. Several security solutions are trying to address different areas of security such as network security, privacy, threat detection, etc. IoT Sentinel is one such novel system that can identify device types based on their pattern of communication. IoT Sentinel proposes several isolation levels that can be used to control the traffic of devices identified as vulnerable. IoT Sentinel uses a Software-defined Networking (SDN) component for controlling the traffic flow for devices and isolating them. In this thesis, we develop a solution to extend IoT Sentinel for device isolation, which is not dependent on SDN. The goal is to build a generic and deployable solution for network segmentation and device isolation that is suitable for home networks. The system divides the network into isolated subnets and places new devices into appropriate subnets. Communication between the subnets is controlled using a firewall thereby isolating them. We dynamically configure a DHCP server to place (lease IP address) new IoT devices identified by IoT Sentinel into appropriate subnets based on their level of vulnerability. Using our solution, we can confine vulnerable devices. Thus, the solution minimizes the damage that could be caused by vulnerable devices present in a network. Finally, we evaluate the developed solution for its security requirement of device isolation. We also present the performance evaluation of our solution based on time-delay and throughput analysis. We observe that our solution adds an acceptable delay to the existing IoT Sentinel processes. We also observe that the system throughput is not significantly affected by firewall rules in a home network scenario

Analyzing the attack surface and threats of industrial Internet of Things devices

The growing connectivity of industrial devices as a result of the Internet of Things is increasing the risks to Industrial Control Systems. Since attacks on such devices can also cause damage to people and machines, they must be properly secured. Therefore, a threat analysis is required in order to identify weaknesses and thus mitigate the risk. In this paper, we present a systematic and holistic procedure for analyzing the attack surface and threats of Industrial Internet of Things devices. Our approach is to consider all components including hardware, software and data, assets, threats and attacks throughout the entire product life cycle

Program Analysis of Commodity IoT Applications for Security and Privacy: Challenges and Opportunities

Recent advances in Internet of Things (IoT) have enabled myriad domains such as smart homes, personal monitoring devices, and enhanced manufacturing. IoT is now pervasive---new applications are being used in nearly every conceivable environment, which leads to the adoption of device-based interaction and automation. However, IoT has also raised issues about the security and privacy of these digitally augmented spaces. Program analysis is crucial in identifying those issues, yet the application and scope of program analysis in IoT remains largely unexplored by the technical community. In this paper, we study privacy and security issues in IoT that require program-analysis techniques with an emphasis on identified attacks against these systems and defenses implemented so far. Based on a study of five IoT programming platforms, we identify the key insights that result from research efforts in both the program analysis and security communities and relate the efficacy of program-analysis techniques to security and privacy issues. We conclude by studying recent IoT analysis systems and exploring their implementations. Through these explorations, we highlight key challenges and opportunities in calibrating for the environments in which IoT systems will be used.Comment: syntax and grammar error are fixed, and IoT platforms are updated to match with the submissio

Against Notice and Choice: The Manifest Failure of the Proceduralist Paradigm to Protect Privacy Online (or Anywhere Else)

Notice and choice are the foundational principles underlying the regulation of privacy in online transactions and in most other situations in which individuals interact with the government and commercial interests. These principles mean that before collecting personally identifiable information (PII) from an individual, the collector must provide the individual with a disclosure (notice) of what PII it proposes to collect and how it proposes to use that information. That knowledge enables the individual to make a rational decision (choice) about whether to allow that collection of information, generally by declining to enter into the transaction or, in some situations, by denying consent to collect the PII. This Article argues that the notice-and-choice paradigm is fundamentally flawed, cannot be fixed, and should be replaced with a system that places substantive limitations on the collection and use of PII for commercial purposes. Each of us who engages with commercial websites, mobile computing devices, or everyday devices that are connected to the Internet receives these notices many times every day. The notices are typically conveyed in the text of a privacy policy that can be accessed by clicking on a hyperlink at the bottom of a web page, tapping on a link of a mobile app’s page on a distribution platform, or paying close attention when installing an Internet of Things device. And the great majority of us, just as many times each day, ignore these privacy notices and submit to whatever collection of PII may result. Why do presumably rational users of the Internet fail to take advantage of this wealth of disclosure information, which is only a click away? Our behavior is easily explained by the concept of rational inattention. The human condition of bounded rationality makes it infeasible for us to take in and process all the information that is contained in the privacy notices that surround us. Even if we were able to process these notices, it would do us no good because, as demonstrated by an empirical study included in this Article, the uniformity among these privacy policies means that we cannot choose among more- and less-protective policies: we can only choose to engage with the online world, making our PII available for uses that we cannot understand or evaluate, or become hermits in self-exile from the online world. The alternative this Article proposes is to discard our faith in the proceduralist approach of notice-and-choice and develop substantive rules that will truly protect the privacy of individuals in their online interactions, rather than settling for the simulacrum of privacy protection that the present system offers
