Abstract

IoT devices permeate our society, collect personal data, and support critical infrastructures such as the healthcare. Therefore, there is a critical need for authentication and authorization schemes for IoT devices to meet privacy requirements, such as mutual authentication and user anonymity, as well as robustness against security attacks. In this paper, we propose a device authentication and key agreement scheme for IoT networks. Our proposal takes as a model the scheme proposed by Rezai et al., and combines it with a physical layer security technique and a hyper-elliptic curve cryptosystem . Our results show that not only our authentication scheme provides anonymity, mutual authentication, and efficiency, but it also provides resilience to various attacks, including man-in-the-middle, replay, and de-synchronization attacks. Our comparison shows that our scheme performs better than the state-of-the-art in terms of security properties, while adding a small overhead of ≈ 10 ( ms ) .
