Abstract:The objects connected to the Internet of Things require security. Security can do a variety of forms, ranging from data encryption to trust management mechanism. Privacy aspects can be improved through the process of trust assessment. Here privacy is improved using Diffie-Hellman key distribution and trust assessment to ensure only trusted things can communicate in the IoT environment. This paper proposed new trust assessment model namely ConTrust. Inspired by the experience of everyday life, ConTrust uses two parameters for assessing trust value: current trust assessment and history-based reputation. History parameter is used in the formula of trust assessment in order to make a fair calculation based on its past object experiences. The formula also utilizes time parameter to improve the fluctuating values of reputation. Some simulations were conducted to evaluate ConTrust and showed that the time parameter is very important factors that influenced the stability of trust and reputation value.
<p>Internet of Things or widely known as IOT makes smart objects become active participants in the communication process between objects and their environment. IoT services that utilize Internet connection require solutions to a new problem: security and privacy. Smart objects and machine-to-machine communications in IOT now become interesting research, including that related to security. Privacy, which is a safe condition in which object is free from interference from other objects, is one of the important aspects in IOT. Privacy can be implemented using various ways for examples by applying encryption algorithms, restrictions on access to data or users, as well as implementing rules or specific policy. Trustable object selection is one technique to improve privacy. The process of selecting a trustable object can be done based on past activities or trust history of the object, also by applying a threshold value to determine whether an object is "trusted" or not. Some researchers have studied this approach. In this study, the selection processes of trustable objects are calculated using Modified Ant Colony algorithm. The simulation was performed and resulted in declining graphic trend but stabilized in certain trust value.</p>
