Abstract
In the original language
The Internet of Things (IoT) is developed to facilitate the connections and data sharing among people, devices, and systems. Among the infrastructural IoT techniques, Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) has been used to enable the proliferation and communication in IoT networks. However, the RFID techniques usually suffer from security issues due to the inherent weaknesses of underlying wireless radio communications. One of the main security issues is the authentication vulnerability from the jamming attack. In order to tackle the vulnerabilities of key updating algorithms, this paper therefore proposes an efficient authentication scheme based on the self-adaptive and mutual key updating. Furthermore, we evaluate the performance and applicability of our solution with a thorough simulation by taking into account the energy consumption, authentication failure rate and authentication delay. The feasibility and applicability are demonstrated by implementing the proposed authentication scheme in smart home IoT systems. (C) 2020 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
