Description
Summary:Smart home is a good exemplification of the Internet of Things (IoT). Many researchers study how to make smart home systems (SHS) smarter. However, the security of SHS is also worth studying as user's information is collected from the devices and security-sensitive data are communicated through an open network. Therefore, how to guarantee the security of the data transmission in SHS is an important problem. In this paper, we propose a new secure data transmission scheme with access control to protect the data transmission in SHS. In our scheme, data transmission is secured by a new cryptographic primitive called access control encryption (ACE). Different from other existing solutions in SHS, our scheme controls not only which messages smart devices can receive, but also which messages they can send. Our experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of our proposed mechanism.
