As the number of internet-connected appliances and the variety of IoT services are rapidly increasing, it is hard to protect IT assets with traditional network security techniques. Most traditional network log analysis systems use rule based mechanisms to reduce the raw logs. But using predefined rules can't detect new attack patterns. So, there is a need for a mechanism to reduce congested raw logs and detect new attack patterns. This paper suggests enterprise security management for IoT services using graph and network measures. We model an event network based on a graph of interconnected logs between network devices and IoT gateways. And we suggest a network clustering algorithm that estimates the attack probability of log clusters and detects new attack patterns.

In the cloud environment, IoT devices using sensors and wearable devices are being applied in various environments, and technologies that accurately determine the information generated by IoT devices are being actively studied. However, due to limitations in the IoT environment such as power and security, information generated by IoT devices is very weak, so financial damage and human casualties are increasing. To accurately collect and analyze IoT information, this paper proposes a topographic information-based key management technique that considers IoT information errors. The proposed technique allows IoT layout errors and groups topographic information into groups of dogs in order to secure connectivity of IoT devices in the event of arbitrary deployment of IoT devices in the cloud environment. In particular, each grouped terrain information is assigned random selected keys from the entire key pool, and the key of the terrain information contained in the IoT information and the probability-high key values are secured with the connectivity of the IoT device. In particular, the proposed technique can reduce information errors about IoT devices because the key of IoT terrain information is extracted by seed using probabilistic deep learning.

The Internet of Things (IoT) provides data convergence and sharing functions, and IoT technology is the most fundamental core technology in creating new services by convergence of various cutting-edge technologies. However, there are different classification systems for the Internet of Things, and when it is limited to the domestic public sector, it is difficult to properly grasp the current status of which devices are installed and operated with what share, and systematic data or research The results are very difficult to find. Therefore, in this study, the relevance of the classification system for IoT devices was analyzed according to reality based on sales, shipments, and growth rate, and based on this, the actual share of IoT devices among domestic public institutions was analyzed in detail. The derived detailed analysis results are expected to be efficiently utilized in the process of selecting IoT devices for research and analysis to advance information protection technology such as responding to malicious code attacks on IoT devices, analyzing incidents, and strengthening security vulnerabilities.

In this fast-paced technological world, the Internet of Things is a ground breaking technology which finds an immense role in the present electronic world which includes different embedded sensors, devices and most other things which are connected to the Internet. The IoT devices are designed in a way that it helps to collect various forms of data from varied sources and transmit them in digitalized form. In modern era of IoT technology data security is a trending issue which greatly affects the confidentiality of important information. Keeping the issue in mind a novel light encryption strategy known as LCB is designed for IoT devices for optimal security. LCB exploits the benefits of Feistel structure and the architectural benefits of substitution permutation network both to give more security. Moreover, this newly designed technique is tested on (Virtex-7) XC7VX330T FPGA board and it takes much little area of 224 GE (Gate Equivalent) and is extremely fast with very less combinational path delay of 0.877 ns. An in-depth screening confirms the proposed work to promise more security to counter cryptographic attacks. Lastly the Avalanche Effect (AE) of LCB showed as 63.125% and 63.875% when key and plaintext (PT) are taken into consideration respectively.

In a smart home environment that integrates IoT technology into a residential environment, the smart home hub provides convenience functions to users by connecting various IoT devices to the network. The smart home hub plays a role as a gateway to and from various data in the process of connecting and using IoT devices. This data can be abused as personal information because it is closely related to the living environment of the user. Such abuse of personal information may cause damage such as exposure of the user's identity. Therefore, this thesis analyzed the threat by using LINDDUN, which is a threat modeling technique for personal information protection which was not used in domestic for Smart Home Hub. We present evaluation criteria for smart home hubs using the Common Criteria, which is an international standard, against threats analyzed and corresponding security requirements.

The IoT environment provides an infinite variety of services using many different devices and networks. The development of the IoT environment is directly proportional to the level of security that can be provided. In some ways, lightweight cryptography is suitable for IoT environments, because it provides security, higher throughput, low power consumption and compactness. However, it has the limitation that it must form a new cryptosystem and be used within a limited resource range. Therefore, it is not the best solution for the IoT environment that requires diversification. Therefore, in order to overcome these disadvantages, this paper proposes a method suitable for the IoT environment, while using the existing block cipher algorithm, viz. the lightweight cipher algorithm, and keeping the existing system (viz. the sensing part and the server) almost unchanged. The proposed BCL architecture can perform encryption for various sensor devices in existing wire/wireless USNs (using) lightweight encryption. The proposed BCL architecture includes a pre/post-processing part in the existing block cipher algorithm, which allows various scattered devices to operate in a daisy chain network environment. This characteristic is optimal for the information security of distributed sensor systems and does not affect the neighboring network environment, even if hacking and cracking occur. Therefore, the BCL architecture proposed in the IoT environment can provide an optimal solution for the diversified IoT environment, because the existing block cryptographic algorithm, viz. the lightweight cryptographic algorithm, can be used.

Due to the remarkable improvement of ICT, with the popularization of mobile devices and every sector of society connected by networks, an era, in which peer to peer, peer to thing, thing to thing can be connected to one another everywhere, has begun. As all the electronic devices are connected to Internet, they have become more intellectualized and automated, making convergence and process of information through the connection of the devices possible to provide a lot better services. However, those devices communicate mutually to send information and they are exposed to various security threats. Therefore, this study analyzes ZigBee, CoAP, MQTT, XMPP, which are communication-related technology of IoT, draws security threats they have, and suggests requirements that components of IoT should have. Plus, it examines real cases about security threats in IoT, and suggests a countermeasure so as to contribute to establishment of a basis for IoT to be used much more safely in the future.

In IoT environment, making sure of trust of IoT devices is the most important one than others. The security threats of nowadays almost stay at exposure or tampering of information. However, if human life is strongly connected to the Internet by IoT devices, the security threats will probably target human directly. In case of devices, authentication is verified using the device-known private key. However, if attacker can modify the device physically, knowing the private key cannot be the evidence of trust any more. Thus, we need stronger verification method like code attestation. In this paper, we use software-based code attestation for efficiency. We also suggest secure code attestation method against copy of original code and implement it on embedded device and analyze its performance.

IoT technology is evolving and related services and technologies are spreading throughout the life. These IoT technologies make life easier for users, but they also have big threats like double-edged swords. Therefore, the importance of security is emerging and related researches are actively proceeding. Existing researches have focused on reducing the computational load on the constrained devices, performing the DTLS for the end-to-end security from a network architecture perspective. In this paper, we propose a DTLS protocol that uses ECQV certificate instead of existing X.509 certificate to reduce the load of DTLS protocol from the network perspective. In addition, the proposed scheme is implemented and compared with PSK and RPK modes.
