A Study on Improvement of Blockchain Application to Overcome Vulnerability of IoT Multiplatform Security

Abstract

IoT devices are widely used in the smart home, automobile, and aerospace areas. Note, however, that recent information on thefts and hacking have given rise to many problems. The aim of this study is to overcome the security weaknesses of existing Internet of Things (IoT) devices using Blockchain technology, which is a recent issue. This technology is used in Machine-to-Machine (M2M) access payment—KYD (Know Your Device)—based on the reliability of existing IoT devices. Thus, this paper proposes a BoT (Blockchain of Things) ecosystem to overcome problems related to the hacking risk of IoT devices to be introduced, such as logistics management and history management. There are also many security vulnerabilities in the sensor multi-platform from the IoT point of view. In this paper, we propose a model that solves the security vulnerability in the sensor multi-platform by using blockchain technology on an empirical model. The color spectrum chain mentioned in this paper suggests a blockchain technique completed by using the multiple-agreement algorithm to enhance Thin-Plate Spline (TPS) performance and measure various security strengths. In conclusion, we propose a radix of the blockchain’s core algorithm to overcome the weaknesses of sensor devices such as automobile, airplane, and close-circuit television (CCTV) using blockchain technology. Because all IoT devices use wireless technology, they have a fundamental weakness over wired networks. Sensors are exposed to hacking and sensor multi-platforms are vulnerable to security by multiple channels. In addition, since IoT devices have a lot of security weaknesses we intend to show the authentication strength of security through the color spectrum chain and apply it to sensor and multi-platform using Blockchain in the future.

The Blockchain Consensus Algorithm for Viable Management of New and Renewable Energies

“…Among the competition methods, the Bitcoin PoW is typical. PoW is a game in which the miners in a network independently perform a hash calculation (calculating block hash), and the game is won if a specific goal is reached, i.e., when a Bitcoin is less than or equal to the target [30,31]. When a certain miner finds the desired block hash, it propagates it to the network and immediately finds the next block, and the neighboring miners who propagate it will verify this block.…”

Scalable and Secure Internet of Things Connectivity

“…IoT is implemented as public or private blockchains depending on the field and purpose. If blockchain technology is applied to an IoT environment, it is possible to not only solve cost, scalability, and security issues but also expect high efficiency by ensuring the integrity and transparency of data produced in IoT devices [18][19][20][21][22]. Table 1 shows an example of the benefits of applying the blockchain technology to the IoT environment compared to the centralized system [23].…”

Multiple Security Certification System between Blockchain Based Terminal and Internet of Things Device: Implication for Open Innovation

“…Kim et al [26] proposed a model to address the security vulnerability of sensor multi-platforms using blockchain technology using an empirical model. They also tried to overcome the weaknesses of sensor devices such as automobiles, airplanes, and close-circuit television (CCTV) using complete blockchain technology by measuring various security strengths.…”
