Secure and privacy-preserving data communication in internet of things

Description

Focuses on protecting data security and privacy when participants communicate with each other in the Internet of Things (IoT). Technically, the authors categorize and introduce a collection of secure and privacy-preserving data communication schemes/protocols in three traditional scenarios of IoT: wireless sensor networks, smart grid and vehicular ad-hoc networks recently. They present three advantages which will appeal to readers. Firstly, they broadens reader's horizon in IoT by touching on three interesting and complementary topics: data aggregation, privacy protection, and key agreement and management. Secondly, various cryptographic schemes/protocols used to protect data confidentiality and integrity are presented. Finally, the authors illustrate how to design practical systems to implement the algorithms in the context of IoT communication.;Secure data aggregation in wireless sensor network -- (Problems, models and goals -- Cryptographic-based data aggregation schemes -- Non cryptographic-based data aggregation schemes) -- Privacy-preserving meter reading transmission in smart grid -- (Cryptographic-based privacy-preserving schemes -- Perturbation-based privacy-preserving schemes) -- Key agreement and management in vehicular ad-hoc network -- (Cryptographic-based secure and privacy-preserving schemes -- Non cryptographic-based secure and privacy-preserving schemes).
