With the rapid growth of the Internet of Things (IoT), massive terminal devices are connected to the network, generating a large amount of IoT data. The reliable sharing of IoT data is crucial for fields such as smart home and healthcare, as it promotes the intelligence of the IoT and provides faster problem solutions. Traditional data sharing schemes usually rely on a trusted centralized server to achieve each attempted access from users to data, which faces serious challenges of a single point of failure, low reliability, and an opaque access process in current IoT environments. To address these disadvantages, we propose a secure and dynamic access control scheme for the IoT, named SDACS, which enables data owners to achieve decentralized and fine-grained access control in an auditable and reliable way. For access control, attribute-based control (ABAC), Hyperledger Fabric, and interplanetary file system (IPFS) were used, with four kinds of access control contracts deployed on blockchain to coordinate and implement access policies. Additionally, a lightweight, certificateless authentication protocol was proposed to minimize the disclosure of identity information and ensure the double-layer protection of data through secure off-chain identity authentication and message transmission. The experimental and theoretical analysis demonstrated that our scheme can maintain high throughput while achieving high security and stability in IoT data security sharing scenarios.

“…Currently, there are no systematic solutions that will transfer control from the prior residents to the new residents across a large number and variety of devices left behind. For individual devices, the literature includes several approaches, including using cryptographic methods 11 or blockchain 12 technology, but many existing IoT devices will not conform to these approaches, and it is unlikely that all future IoT devices will either. This situation suggests there is a need for judgment (based on experience) to ensure all devices in a home are securely transferred to the new residents.…”

We Need a “Building Inspector for IoT” When Smart Homes Are Sold

Internet of Things (IoT) devices left behind when a home is sold create security and privacy concerns for both prior and new residents. We envision a specialized "building inspector for IoT" to help securely facilitate transfer of the home. R oughly 6 million homes are sold each year in the United States alone. 1 Before a home is sold, a building inspector often examines the integrity of the building and renders an opinion on its soundnessexamining things like structural integrity, electrical safety, mold and mildew, and radon or other toxins. These inspectors have specialized tools, knowledge, and experience to make a more informed judgment than nonprofessionals are capable of making.
