Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) technologies interconnect wide ranges of network devices irrespective of their resource capabilities and local networks. The device constraints and the dynamic link creations make it challenging to use pre-shared keys for every secure end-to-end (E2E) communication scenario in IoT. Variants of Host Identity Protocol (HIP) are adopted for constructing dynamic and secure E2E connections among the heterogenous network devices with imbalanced resource profiles and less or no previous knowledge about each other. We propose a collaborative HIP solution with an efficient key establishment component for the high constrained devices in IoT, which delegates the expensive cryptographic operations to the resource rich devices in the local networks. Finally, we demonstrate the applicability of the key establishment in collaborative HIP solution for the constrained IoT devices rather than the existing HIP variants, by providing performance and security analysis.
