dc.description.abstract | In recent years, the Internet of Things (IoT) has seen tremendous growth. The fast-growing IoT field is facing many security issues because infrastructure configuration and security policies employed in this nascent field have not matured yet. In this research, we argue that the security issues on IoT can be solved using Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT). The integration of IoT devices and Distributed Ledger Technology is getting more recognition in distributed device settings. In a Distributed Ledger IoT environment, DLT manages a distributed public ledger that stores the communication and transaction data of multiple parties without requiring a trusted central authority. A prime example of the IoT and DLT integration is the IOTA Tangle. IOTA Tangle is a new and world’s first distributed ledger technology specially developed for IoT devices. In its core structure, it stores data in a directed acyclic graph. IOTA is not only built to ensure secure communication among the IoT devices but also to provide some extra leverage to the IoT devices compared to the traditional blockchains. Regular blockchains have dedicated miners and they are mostly fee-dependent for making any kind of transaction. IOTA ledger is more scalable, has neither transaction fees nor traditional miners, and it also has the technology to protect the network against Quantum Computer’s attack. Before widely bringing the IoT devices into the IOTA network, we need to justify the feasibility of IoT and IOTA integration making a use case prototype to ensure the security of the IoT devices in real-time experiments. Hence, the main goal of this research is to integrate IoT sensor devices and IOTA Tangle to scale up the security of the IoT infrastructure and at the same time execute an efficiency test of the network. | en_US |
