Abstract

Abstract : The delivery of unified intelligent services is accomplished through a networked environment comprised of a wide array of electronic devices. Through the use of Internet of Things (IoT) technology, smart homes collect data from their surroundings and use it to improve their tenants' lives. Remote control, real-time monitoring, and a fire alarm are all characteristics of smart home security. Since smart homes hold personally identifying information about their residents, security is critical to ensure their reliability and prevent data breaches. In this paper, a certificateless online/offline signcryption (COOS) technique for IoT-enabled smart homes is proposed. The proposed solution takes advantage of a resource-constrained smart home device–friendly algorithm known as the Hyperelliptic Curve Cryptosystem (HCC). The suggested approach satisfies the security requirements of unforgeability, confidentiality, resistance to replay attacks, and non-repudiation. The complexity analysis in terms of communicational and computational costs demonstrates the efficiency of the proposed scheme. Finally, we validate the security against Man-In-The-Middle-Attack (MITM) and anti-reply attacks using Automated Validation of Internet Security Protocols and Applications (AVISPA). The data imply that the recommended course of action is safe.
