Survey of Trust Management on Mission-oriented Internet of Things

Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) enables us to use diverse sensing data and control IoT devices, sometimes, networks remotely. This technology makes our lives easier and more comfortable. However, the services currently provided by IoT systems are limited within pre-defined sets of devices and it hinders the development of large-scale and complicated IoT services that could be provided through dynamic collaboration between IoT devices across networks. To realize the mission-oriented IoT (MIoT) systems, we must address the security issues of the MIoT systems. Among various security issues, in this paper, we focus on trust management on MIoT. We analyze existing work on trust management to see if they are suitable for the MIoT systems. Then, we identify potential issues and discuss challenges for the trust management on MIoT.
