The first keynote speech, "Let’s Develop a Secure IoT Environment" by Peter Mueller has focussed on one of the absolutely critical aspects within the IoT environment – Security whose functions and attributes are required at every level, from a tiny sensor device ranging up to a high performance data center on a backbone. Today’s new requirements regarding technology, policies and standards were reviewed, and some conjectures were given on where advanced security might take us and the IoT in the future.

PeterMueller.jpg Peter Mueller joined IBM Research as a Research Staff Member in 1988. He is also the Chair of the IEEE Communications and Information Systems Security Technical Committee (CIS-TC).  His research expertise covers broad areas of human-machine interfaces, distributed computing systems architecture and security, communications and interconnects technology, device physics, nanoscience, and computer modeling.  Focusing on systems architecture, his main experience is in the fields of channel coding techniques, cryptography, and error control and correction methods; resource allocation and re-allocation, synchronization, and real-time behavior including cross layer reliability issues.  His current field of research is in the area of data center storage security and reliability.


The second keynote speech, "Towards Adaptive Risk Management for the IoT" by Dr. Mohamed Hamdi has addressed the application of risk management methodologies and risk analysis processes to the IoT. The intrinsic features of the IoT have first been underlined. Then, the shortcomings of the traditional frameworks to address these specific needs have been discussed. Particularly, the need for real-time reactivity and the support of a dynamic context have been emphasized. Several new methodologies, protocols, and algorithms that have been recently developed to apply adaptive security to the IoT have been reviewed. Finally, some open issues were highlighted.

MohamedHamdi.jpg Mohamed Hamdi is currently a visiting researcher at the Norwegian Computing Center where he contributes to the ASSET project. He is also an Associate Professor at University of Carthage, Tunisia. He co-authored more than 80 scientific publications in international journals and conferences. He was the chair of the 'Cloud security' industry forum in the IEEE ICC'12 conference (Ottawa, Canada).  He is conducting research activities in the areas of adaptive risk management, lightweight security for the IoT, algebraic modeling, cloud security, and advanced network forensics.

The successful completion of the SeTTIT 2012 Workshop

The SeTTIT (Security Tools and Techniques for Internet of Things) Workshop in conjunction with the BodyNets 2012 Conference concluded on Wednesday September 26, 2012, Oslo, Norway. The workshop featured 2 keynote speeches and 4 regular papers. The program of the workshop was as follows:

  • Chair: Dr. Habtamu Abie NR, Norway
  • Keynote speech: Information Management Challenges in a context-aware Internet of Things Towards a Healthy You, Prof. Stefan Poslad, Queen Mary University of London, UK
  • Security and Privacy Threats in IoT Architectures, D. Kozlov, J. Veijalainen and Y. Ali, University of Jyväskylä, Finland
  • Towards Metrics-Driven Adaptive Security Management in E-Health IoT Applications, R. M. Savola, H. Abie and M. Sihvonen, VTT Finland
  • Keynote speech: Game Theory and Trust Models for the Internet of Things, Dr. Mohamed Hamdi, School of Communication Engineering, Tunisia
  • Risk-Based Adaptive Security for Smart IoT in eHealth, H. Abie and I. Balasingham, Norwegian Computing Center, Norway
  • Managing Access Control for Things: a Capability Based Approach, D. Rotondi and S. Piccione, TxT e-solutions S.p.A., Italy


The first keynote speech, "Information Management Challenges in a Context-Aware Internet of Things (ioT) towards a Healthy You" by Prof. Stefan Poslad, has covered the ‘Old’ Internet of Devices vs the ‘New’ IoT, IoT Architecture Models, IoT Apps in eHealth, and the objectives and challenges of information management including how IoT such as sensors and RFID tags add more low resource digital things, and single-task OS & RTOS devices that run vertical services are networked but not IP networked and cannot easily be orchestrated, and how the use and value of sensor data and the ways can be orchestrated can be enhanced if the appropriate contexts for the sensor data are defined, can be captured, linked to, browsed and post-processed which represent key information management challenges in a context-aware IoT towards a healthy you.


The second keynote speech, “Game Theory and Trust Models for the IoT" by Dr. Mohamed Hamdi, analyzed the threat sophistication in the IoT based on real attack cases, discussed relevant examples including coalition attacks and impersonation in online gaming applications, reviewed the mathematical foundations of game theory with a listing of the different categories of games and their main features, and a discussion of the categories that better fit the requirements for IoT trust management, and explored potential use cases of game theory for IoT trust management with three scenarios the interception of a message by an intruder, the propagation of a worm in a networked system, and the use of game theory to assess the vulnerability of an ad hoc topology against denial of service attacks.


The four regular papers addressed security and privacy threats in IoT architectures by Prof Jari Veijalainen, metrics-driven adaptive security management in eHealth IoT applications by Mr Reijo Savola, risk-based adaptive security for IoT in eHealth by Dr. Habtamu Abie, and managing access control for things-a capability-based approach by Mr Domenico Rotondi, respectively.


Both the presentations and discussions were instructive and fruitful. In sum, the workshop has achieved its main objectives of bringing experts from science and industry together to discuss new insights from work in progress, technological and scientific breakthroughs and practical aspects of securing the IoT. The audience had the opportunity to take part in the discussion of protection tools and techniques for the IoT.
