“…While the precedent delegation approaches reduce the computational load at the constrained node, they break the end to end principle by requiring a third trusted party. Authors in (Abdmeziem and Tandjaoui, 2015), addressed the precedent issue by enhancing the existing schemes to ensure the end to end property.…”

“…In this paper, we introduce an extension of our two previous approches (Abdmeziem and Tandjaoui, 2014) (Abdmeziem and Tandjaoui, 2015) to propose a new standard-based cooperative key management scheme. In fact, we design a new distributed hybrid mode for MIKEY protocol combining the Pre-shared key mode with the Public key mode.…”

Abstract:Securing e-health applications in the context of Internet of Things (IoT) is challenging. Indeed, resources scarcity in such environment hinders the implementation of existing standard based protocols. Among these protocols, MIKEY (Multimedia Internet KEYing) aims at establishing security credentials between two communicating entities. However, the existing MIKEY modes fail to meet IoT specificities. In particular, the pre-shared key mode is energy efficient, but suffers from severe scalability issues. On the other hand, asymmetric modes such as the public key mode are scalable, but are highly resource consuming. To address this issue, we combine two previously proposed approaches to introduce a new distributed MIKEY mode. Indeed, relying on a cooperative approach, a set of third parties is used to discharge the constrained nodes from heavy computational operations. Doing so, the pre-shared mode is used in the constrained part of the network, while the public key mode is used in the unconstrained part of the network. Preliminary results show that our proposed mode is energy preserving whereas its security properties are kept safe.

“…WBAN applications [5,6] are growing and becoming more indispensable in people's lives due to the increasing accessability of network service and computing devices. Despite the great progress in networking and computing technology, security is one significant factor that influences users' choice of WBAN applications, since such applications involve a lot of personal information and therefore are vulnerable to security issues.…”

Abstract:The IEEE Std 802.15.6 is an international standard for wireless body area networks (WBANs). It contains many aspects of communications, and also provides security services, since some communications in WBANs can carry sensitive information. In this standard, the password authenticated association is a protocol for two participants to identify each other and establish a new master key based on a pre-shared short password. However, recent research shows that this protocol is vulnerable to several attacks. In this paper, we propose an improved protocol which can resist all of these attacks. Moreover, the improved protocol alleviates computational burden on one side of the two participants, the node, which is usually less powerful compared with the other side, the hub.
