With the development of IoT technology, various cloud computing-based services such as smart cars, smart healthcare, smart homes, and smart farms are expanding. With the advent of a new environment, various problems continue to occur, such as the possibility of exposure of important information such as personal information or company secrets, financial damage cases due to hacking, and human casualties due to malicious attack techniques. In this paper, we propose a message communication protocol for smart home-based secure communication and user data protection. As a detailed process, secure device registration, message authentication protocol, and renewal protocol were newly designed in the smart home environment. By referring to the security requirements related to the smart home service, the stability of the representative attack technique was verified, and as a result of performing a comparative analysis of the performance, the efficiency of about 50% in the communication aspect and 25% in the signature verification aspect was confirmed.
