Study on security architecture for internet of things

Abstract

The development of Internet of Things(IoT) will bring a new ubiquitous computing and communication era. Due to the lack of security mechanisms in the early Internet, we had to build patches to improve the security of it, which leads to that the Internet security is always a big risk. To avoid the same thing happened in building IoT, the security of IoT should be systematically studied from the beginning design of the IoT. In this paper, based on the studies on the IoT architecture and the analysis on the secure threats in IoT, the security architecture of the IoT is presented on the basis of the secure architecture of the information system, the related secure problems in the IoT are analyzed from the aspect of the secure service, secure domain and network layer. In addition, the limitation and the hardness work for the future are pointed out in this field. © 2011 Springer-Verlag.
