The increasing number of devices used in the Internet of Things (IoT) has led to the emergence of complex new networks of devices, gateways, an‎d cloud services, all interacting with each other through continuous data exchange. Despite extensive research into device/application-level threats, little is known about potential network-level threats. These threats include, but are not limited to, man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks, distributed denial-of-service (DDoS)/botnet attacks, an‎d routing attacks (vulnerabilities an‎d wormholes), all of which are capable of bypassing traditional endpoint protection an‎d causing significant disruption. This seminar will address network-level threats in the Internet of Things (IoT), establish a classification of attack vectors based on current research, an‎d then create a common set of rules to mitigate them in an IoT environment, based on IoT constraints such as hardware computing, power, an‎d dynamic topologies. In addition to reviewing what has already been identified, the research will also determine how to improve these mechanisms an‎d provide practical methods for increasing the level of security an‎d resilience in Internet of Things networks.
