An event-based access control for IoT

Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) comes together with the connection between sensors and devices. These smart devices have been upgraded from a standalone device which can only handle a specific task at one time to an interactive device that can handle multiple tasks in time. However, this technology has been exposed to many vulnerabilities especially on the malicious attacks of the devices. With the IoT constraints and low-security mechanisms applied, the malicious attacks could exploit the sensor vulnerability to provide wrong data where it can lead to wrong interpretation and actuation to the users. Due to this problems, this short paper presents an event-based access control framework that considers integrity, privacy and the authenticity in the IoT devices.
