Recently interest in Internet of Things(IoT) is increasing, and a variety of the security technologies that are suitable for Internet of Things has being studied. Especially sensor network area of the device is an increased using and diversified for a low specification devices because of characteristic of the Internet of Things. However, there is difficulty in directly applying the security technologies such as the current authentication technologies to a low specification device, so also increased security threats. Therefore, authentication protocol between entities on the sensor network communication in Internet of Things has being studied. In 2014, Porambage et al. suggested elliptic curve cryptography algorithm based on a sensor network authentication protocol for advance security of Internet of Things environment, but it is vulnerability exists. Accordingly, in this paper, we analyze the vulnerability in elliptic curve cryptography algorithm based on authentication protocol proposed by Porambage et al. and propose an improved authentication protocol for sensor networks in Internet of Things environment.

With the rapid development of Internet of Things sensor devices and big data processing techniques, Internet of Things sensor-based information systems have been applied in various industries. Depending on the industry in which the information systems are applied, the accuracy of the information derived can affect the industry's efficiency and safety. Therefore, security techniques that protect sensing data from security attacks and enable information systems to derive accurate information are essential. In this paper, we examine security threats targeting each processing step of an Internet of Things sensor-based information system and propose security mechanisms for each security threat. Furthermore, we present an Internet of Things sensor-based information system structure that is robust to security attacks by integrating the proposed security mechanisms. In the proposed system, by applying lightweight security techniques such as a lightweight encryption algorithm and obfuscation-based data validation, security can be secured with minimal processing delay even in low-power and low-performance IoT sensor devices. Finally, we demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed system by implementing and performance evaluating each security mechanism.

Internet of Things (IoT) connects several objects with embedded sensors and they are capable of exchanging information between devices to create a smart environment. IoT smart devices have limited resources, such as batteries, computing power, and bandwidth, but comprehensive sensing causes severe energy restrictions, lowering data quality. The main objective of the proposal is to build a hybrid protocol which provides high data quality and reduced energy consumption in IoT sensor network. The hybrid protocol gives a flexible and complete solution for sensor selection problem. It selects a subset of active sensor nodes in the network which will increase the data quality and optimize the energy consumption. Since the unused sensor nodes switch off during the sensing phase, the energy consumption is greatly reduced. The hybrid protocol uses Dijkstra's algorithm for determining the shortest path for sensing data and Ant colony inspired variable path selection algorithm for selecting active nodes in the network. The missing data due to inactive sensor nodes is reconstructed using enhanced belief propagation algorithm. The proposed hybrid method is evaluated using real sensor data and the demonstrated results show significant improvement in energy consumption, data utility and data reconstruction rate compared to other existing methods.

In the earth more than half of the space filled with water. In that water most of the part is in the form of oceans. The ocean atmosphere determines climate on the land. Combining the Underwater Acoustic Sensor Network (UWASN) system with Internet Of Things (IoT) is called Internet of Underwater Things (IoUT). Using IoUT we can find the changes in the ocean environment. Underwater sensor nodes are used in UWASN. Underwater sensor nodes are constructive in offshore investigation, disaster anticipation, data gathering, assisted navigation, pollution checking and strategic inspection. By using IoT components such as Database, Server and Internet, ocean data can be broadcasted. This paper introduces IoUT architecture and and explains fish forming application scenario with this IoUT architecture.

In our daily lives, we engage in a variety of tasks that rely on our senses, such as seeing. Blindness is the absence of the sense of vision. According to the World Health Organization, 2.2 billion people worldwide suffer from various forms of vision impairment. Unfortunately, blind people face a variety of indoor and outdoor challenges on a daily basis, limiting their mobility and preventing them from engaging in other activities. Blind people are very vulnerable to a variety of hazards, including falls. Various barriers, such as stairs, can cause a fall. The Internet of Things (IoT) is used to track falls and send a warning message to the blind caretakers. One of the gaps in the previous works is that they were unable to differentiate between falls true and false. Treating false falls as true falls results in many false alarms being sent to the blind caretakers and thus, they may reject the IoT system. As a means of bridging this chasm, this paper proposes an intelligent shoe that is able to precisely distinguish between false and true falls based on three sensors, namely, the load scale sensor, the light sensor, and the Flex sensor. The proposed IoT system is tested in an indoor environment for various scenarios of falls using four models of machine learning. The results from our system showed an accuracy of 0.96%. Compared to the state-of-the-art, our system is simpler and more accurate since it avoids sending false alarms to the blind caretakers.
