Abstract

RPL is common protocol for the Internet of Things (IoT) network, that used for routing data freely among smart "things" in various environments. Which makes them susceptible to attack, especially of the rank attack (RA) that is common for RPL that based on manipulated the rank value for each node in the network to disrupt the routing path. Also, RA is increasing latency between (source node and destination node) and maximizing nodes’ energy usage in the whole network. Therefore, in this study a new technique is proposed to protect RPL against rank attack based on layering mechanism. The proposed technique consists of three steps: Classifying node into layers, calculating path trust value and identifying and alleviating rank attack. The method is implemented via using Cooja simulator software. The network performance is measured according to three metrics: latency, nodes’ energy consuming and accuracy of malicious node detection. The simulation results have revealed that the proposed method gives higher accuracy of malicious node detection, low nodes’ energy usage, and less latency in comparison with SecTrust study.

通过利用分层技术保护物联网的RPL路由路径免受秩攻击

RPL是物联网(IoT)网络的通用协议，用于在各种环境中的智能“事物”之间自由路由数据。这使得它们容易受到攻击，特别是RPL常见的基于操纵网络中每个节点的秩值来破坏路由路径的秩攻击(RA)。同时，RA增加了(源节点和目的节点)之间的延迟，最大化了整个网络中节点的能量使用。为此，本文提出了一种基于分层机制的RPL防秩攻击新技术。该技术包括三个步骤:节点分层、计算路径信任值、识别和减轻秩攻击。该方法通过Cooja仿真软件实现。网络性能是根据三个指标来衡量的:时延、节点能耗和恶意节点检测的准确性。仿真结果表明，与SecTrust方法相比，该方法具有更高的恶意节点检测精度、更低的节点能耗和更小的延迟。
