Enhanced mutual authentication model of IoT

Abstract

The authentication mechanism of the Internet of things (IoT) control system is an important research field. This paper aims to give an appropriate authentication mechanism of IoT control system. It analyzes the pros and cons of some existing authentication mechanisms, proposes an enhanced bi-direction authentication mechanism for IoT control system, discusess the proposed mechanism in detail, including the improvements measures, the authentication process and the authentication model. Finally, this paper presents the security analysis of the enhanced authentication model. Analysis results indicate that the model is a relatively feasible security authentication model for the IoT control system.
