One time password-based SEED algorithm for IoT systems

Abstract

Recent advances in networking and computers, especially internet of things (IoT) technologies, have improved the quality of home life and industrial sites. However, the security vulnerability of IoT technologies causes life-threatening issues and information leakage concerns. Studies regarding security algorithms are being conducted. In this paper, we proposed SEED algorithms based on one time passwords (OTPs). The specified server sent time data to the client every 10 seconds. The client changed the security key using time data and generated a ciphertext by combining the changed security key and the matrix. We applied the SEED algorithms with enhanced security to Linux-based embedded boards and android smart phones, then conducted a door lock control experiment (door lock & unlock). In this process, the power consumed for decryption was measured. The power consumption of the OTP-based algorithm was measured as 0.405-0.465W. The OTP-based algorithm didn't show any difference from the existing SEED algorithms, but showed a better performance than the existing algorithms. © ICROS 2016.
