Fine-Tuned Access Control for Internet of Things

Security within the internet of things suffers from balancing power consumption and memory usage in devices. We propose two protocols that aim to reduce these strains while maintaining effective security through symmetric keys. Our first protocol takes a user-level approach for fine-tuned access control over advanced operations between a device and its installed software. Our second protocol allows for flexibility between the energy and memory tradeoff for network designers along with a dynamic bootstrapping mechanism for an already established network.
