Security and privacy protection of smart home based on IPv6

Abstract

At home and abroad, smart home, after more than ten years development is getting more and more widely welcomed. Smart home technology is developing rapidly, and with the emergence of IPv6, smart home based on IPv6 is becoming a trend. Meanwhile, security and privacy protection of smart home is receiving more attention. Although IPv6 is more secure than IPV4, there are still issues of privacy loss. In this paper, we focus on the security and privacy protection of smart home based on IPv6 and propose two different solutions respectively, that is, security and privacy protection based on trust as well as that based on strategy. These two solutions achieve security and privacy protection via model about trust and strategy mechanism respectively. On the basis of these two solutions, a framework of security and privacy protection system of smart home is designed. Through the system we designed, the security and privacy protection of smart home based on IPv6 is achieved.
