Abstract-Building automation systems are traditionally concerned with the control of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning, as well as lighting and shading, systems. They have their origin in a time where security has been considered as a side issue at best. Nowadays, with the rising desire to integrate securitycritical services that were formerly provided by isolated subsystems, security must no longer be neglected. Thus, the development of a comprehensive security concept is of utmost importance. This paper starts with a security threat analysis and identifies the challenges of providing security in the building automation domain. Afterward, the security mechanisms of available standards are thoroughly analyzed. Finally, two approaches that provide both secure communication and secure execution of possibly untrusted control applications are presented.

“…Several publications are fully dedicated to DoS attacks at the automation and management layers [26,27,28,29,10,16,17,11,30,22]. Two main type of DoS attacks can be conducted at this layer [26]: host-based and network-based. In host-based DoS, attackers target devices that are critical for the operation of the system (i.e., firewalls), devices that concentrate automation functionality (i.e., controllers), or interconnection devices (i.e., gateways, routers).…”

“…In this same paper, the researchers develop a solution that allows abstracting the different protocols used in SB to implement security using gateways in charge of the security operations. Finally, a group of researchers attempt in [26] to solve the difference of computational power between automation system devices and potential attackers which could lead to a resource exhaustion DoS by developing a system where the client has to solve a complex puzzle whose solution can be simply compared to an expected result without calculation in the device.…”

Smart Buildings are networks of connected devices and software in charge of automatically managing and controlling several building functions such as HVAC, fire alarms, lighting, shading and more. These systems evolved from mostly electronic and mechanical elements to complex systems relying on IT and wireless technologies and networks. This exposes smart buildings to new risks and threats that need to be enumerated and addressed. Research efforts have been done in several areas related to security in smart buildings but a clear overview of the research field is missing. In this paper, we present the results of a systematic literature review that provides a thorough understanding of the state of the art in research on the security of smart buildings. We found that the field of smart buildings security is growing significantly in complexity due to the many protocols introduced recently and that the research community is already studying. We also found an important lack of empirical evaluations, though evaluations on testbeds and real systems seems to be growing. Finally, we found an almost complete lack of consideration of non-technical aspects, such as social, organisational, and human factors, which are crucial in this type of systems, where ownership and liability is not always clear.
