Abstract
Smart homes rely on sustainable energy sources and information technologies for providing ambient assisted living (AAL) support for humans. The significance of automation and energy optimization is prominent in providing secure and reliable control over in-home applications. Security is one of the drawbacks in smart home scenarios where the connected network of applications and sustainable energy sources are exposed to risk. This article introduces the seamless security apprises method (SSAM) to monitor the connected network's administered security measure. The proposed method monitors the lifetime of the administered security measures by verifying its exploitation and vulnerable levels in a periodic manner. In this verification process, the distributed security is classified for different operating and communicating states of the connected applications. For this state-based analysis, Q-learning is adapted to identify and update the state and its associated security measure. It reduces the early termination of the security measure due to identity thefts and provides continuous support for the operating applications. Therefore, sustainable energy resources are efficiently exploited without facing convergence in application functions. The cyber security features of the connected network are exploited in administering the security from a centralized platform. The proposed method's performance is verified using the verification time, security level, energy efficiency, and security loss.
