Interactive Task Assignment Model for Internet of Things Devices

ThingPot: an interactive Internet-of-Things honeypot

The Mirai Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attack exploited security vulnerabilities of Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices and thereby clearly signaled that attackers have IoT on their radar. Securing IoT is therefore imperative, but in order to do so it is crucial to understand the strategies of such attackers. For that purpose, in this paper, a novel IoT honeypot called ThingPot is proposed...

A Mutual Authentication Method for Internet of Things

Today, we are witnessing the expansion of various Internet of Things (IoT) applications and services such as surveillance and health. These services are delivered to users via smart devices anywhere and anytime. Forecasts show that the IoT, which is controlled online in the user environment, will reach 25 billion devices worldwide by 2020. Data security is one of the main concerns in the IoT. ...

Bi-Directional Visible Light Communication for Internet-of-Things devices

Traditional methods of wireless communications are saturating in terms of data rate, frequency spectrum and reliability. Visible light communications has attracted interests in many fields due to widespread commercial availability of LED lights and partly due to limited bandwidth available on the radio communication. It is even more effective for Internet-of-Things(IoT) devices which require ve...
