There can be several different scenarios and implementations where IoT is involved. Each of them has its requirements. In these type IoT networks new com- munication protocols which are meant to be lightweight are included such as MQTT. In this thesis there are two key aspects which are under study: secu- rity and achieving a lightweight communication. We want to propose a secure and lightweight solution in an IoT scenario using MQTT as the communication protocol. We perform different experiments with different implementations over MQTT which we evaluate, compare and analyze. The results obtained help to answer our research questions and show that the proposed solution fulfills the goals we proposed in the beginning of this work. iv Sammanfattning "Internet of Things", dvs IoT, har blivit ett mycket trenderande ämne inom forskning och har undersökts de senaste åren. Det kan finnas flera olika scenarier och implementeringar där IoT är involverad. Var och en av dem har sina krav.

  • An Iot-Based Mobile System for Safety Monitoring of Lone Workers
    IoT Article An IoT-Based Mobile System for Safety Monitoring of Lone Workers Pietro Battistoni * , Monica Sebillo and Giuliana Vitiello LabGis Laboratory, Computer Science Department, University of Salerno, 84084 Fisciano, Italy; [email protected] (M.S.); [email protected] (G.V.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: The European Agency for Safety and Health at Work considers Smart Personal Protective Equipment as “Intelligent Protection For The Future”. It mainly consists of electronic components that collect data about their use, the workers who wear them, and the working environment. This paper proposes a distributed solution of Smart Personal Protective Equipment for the safety monitoring of Lone Workers by adopting low-cost electronic devices. In addition to the same hazards as anyone else, Lone Workers need additional and specific systems due to the higher risk they run on a work site. To this end, the Edge-Computing paradigm can be adopted to deploy an architecture embedding wearable devices, which alerts safety managers when workers do not wear the prescribed Personal Protective Equipment and supports a fast rescue when a worker seeks help or an accidental fall is automatically detected. The proposed system is a work-in-progress which provides an architecture design to accommodate different requirements, namely the deployment difficulties at temporary and large working sites, the maintenance and connectivity recurring cost issues, the respect for the workers’ privacy, and the simplicity of use for workers and their supervisors.

  • A Comparison of Iot Application Layer Protocols Through a Smart Parking Implementation
    A Comparison of IoT application layer protocols through a smart parking implementation Paridhika Kayal and Harry Perros {pkayal,hp}@ncsu.edu Computer Science Department North Carolina State University Abstract—Several IoT protocols have been introduced in order to high performance, real-time data sharing or real-time device provide an efficient communication for resource-constrained control. In many cases data is collected for subsequent applications. However, their performance is not as yet well “offline” processing. The WebSocket (WS) standard provides understood. To address this issue, we evaluated and compared bi-directional Web communication and connection four communication protocols, namely, CoAP, MQTT, XMPP, management. WebSocket is a good IoT solution if the devices and WebSocket. For this, we implemented a smart parking application using open source software for these protocols and can afford the WebSocket payload. Other protocols, such as, measured their response time by varying the traffic load. SMQ and CoSIP are also gaining traction. All these protocols Keywords—CoAP, MQTT, XMPP, WebSocket, smart parking, are positioned as real-time publish-subscribe IoT protocols, response time. with support for millions of devices.

In this paper, we investigate the security of the Message Queue Telemetry Transport (MQTT) protocol, widely adopted in IoT infrastructures. We exploit two specific weaknesses of MQTT, identified during our research activities, allowing the client to configure the KeepAlive parameter and MQTT packets to execute an innovative cyber threat against the MQTT broker. In order to validate the exploitation of such vulnerabilities, we propose SlowTT, a novel “Slow” denial of service attack aimed at targeting MQTT through low-rate techniques, characterized by minimum attack bandwidth and computational power requirements. We validate SlowTT against real MQTT services, by considering both plaintext and encrypted communications and by comparing the effects of the attack when targeting different application daemons and protocol versions. Results show that SlowTT is extremely successful, and it can exploit the identified vulnerability to execute a denial of service against the IoT network by keeping the connection alive for a long time.

  • Remote Cargo Monitoring System Specifications with Smart Technologies
    REMOTE CARGO MONITORING SYSTEM SPECIFICATIONS WITH SMART TECHNOLOGIES HAMED GHODSINEZHAD Student number 39307 Master of Science (Technology) Thesis Supervisor: Sebastien Lafond Faculty of Science and Engineering Åbo Akademi University April 2020 ABSTRACT Hundreds of containers are lost at sea every year due to poor maintenance and harsh weather conditions and a majority of environmental hazards and economic losses at seas is caused by containers that are lost. In addition to that, securing containers as a stack on ships in rough seas is a procedure that relies on different types of equipment. Thus, reliable technical guidance from vessels’ officers is required to install equipment. Port and shipping companies can significantly benefit from digitalization and new developments to optimize their existing solutions and create new opportunities. The aim of this thesis is to determine the possibility to design a cargo monitoring system for containership operators and find the specifications based on the literature review. However, there are challenges in ship-to-shore communication, namely, uncertainty about communication methods, technological requirements and the operation cost. In this thesis, I propose a communication model based on the MQTT protocol to inform ship crew about cargos’ status and then define requirements to transfer this information between vessels and onshore bases. This model is divided into two layers: vessel and shore layer. The vessel layer is an internal system that monitors containers’ status through sensors’ data to assist crew. This information is stored at the ship bridge. The shore layer is to update onshore people about their shipments. Moreover, the technical requirements in accordance with the maritime environment to implement this model are explored.
