IoT-Cloud Service Security and Privacy: Integration and Consolidation

Abstract

Advances in technology have led to the rapid development of the Internet and the emergence of the Internet of Things. In the Internet of Thing, data storage and transmission need privacy protection. In addition, the Internet of Things needs cloud services in storing, transferring and managing data. Therefore, it is crucial that the cloud is also secure. To that end, this paper explores a three-layered IoT conceptual model in conjunction with the elements of cloud computing security and privacy for IoT components, and protection of stored and transmitted data. More specifically, a three-layered model is proposed that maps to cloud computing security and privacy requirements as: (1) perception layer for accessing to cloud, (2) transport layer for device identification, and (3) application layer for cloud data.
