An Enrolment Gateway for Data Security in Heterogeneous Industrial Internet of Things

Abstract

Industry includes more and more IoT components to have a better control on production and logistic processes.Unfortunately, growing network openness in a formerly isolated world induces major security risks which are especially critical in an industrial context. These risks are exacerbated by the highly fragmented nature of the industrial IoT market which imposes interoperability management and challenges security.We propose an approach to enable end-to-end data security within a heterogeneous IoT deployment. Interoperability is ensured by a central network powered by oneM2M interacting with various tier protocols. In this paper, we focus on secure communication with ZigBee and discuss how it can be transposed to other protocols, namely Z-Wave and Thread.
