Abstract:
Energy management systems are used to control energy usage in buildings and campuses in order to provide reliable energy supply and maximize user comfort while minimizing energy usage. The heterogeneous, distributed, and dynamically evolving nature of energy management systems based on internet of things introduces new and unexpected risks that cannot be solved by current state-of-the-art security solutions. For this, new paradigms and methods are required in order to i) build security into the Information Communication Technology (ICT) system at the outset, ii) adapt to changing security conditions, iii) reduce the need to fix flaws after deploying the system, and iv) provide the assurance that the ICT system is secure and trustworthy at all times. This paper provides a holistic overview of designing a secure framework for Internet of Things (IoT) system, where the framework will be implemented as part of an ongoing H2020 project called ANASTACIA: Advanced Networked Agents for Security and Trust Assessment in Cyber-Physical System (CPS) based on IoT Architectures.
