Abstract:
In Cyber Physical Systems based on sensor networks, one of the important requirements is that the data in the system are protected from a variety of incidents. In this study, a secure IoT system is proposed for Cyber Physical Systems using sensor networks, and a prototype was developed on the input side. The novel concept of the proposed method is to apply encryption at the physical layer into the IoT system from input processing to output processing. The system is based on Shamir Secret Sharing, which is a type of encryption using distributed processing. The encrypted data in the system would maintain confidentiality even when a part of the data is browsed by a third party by unauthorized access of a malicious third person or by human operator error. In addition, it is possible for a user to control accessibility by holding key information of the encryption. The prototype system on the input side was created by an Arduino, a Sakura LTE module, and the Sakura IoT Platform.
