Summary:
|
The number of Internet of things (IoT) devices is increasing, and there will be an enormous number of devices connected to the IoT network including 5G in the near future. Recommendation ITU-T X.amas-iot provides an aggregate message authentication (AMA) scheme for the IoT environments and an interactive aggregate message authentication (IAMA) scheme with interactive protocol in a secure lightweight manner. The aggregate message authentication scheme can be applied for ensuring "entity (identity) authentication" as well as for ensuring "message authentication". This scheme may not be applicable all use cases for utilizing IoT devices. Specifically, this scheme is quite effective and suitable for use cases in the following conditions where:
" Message authentication is required from tens to tens of thousands of IoT devices.
" The data/message being handled for an authentication process occurs frequently and intermittently.
For example, "surveillance applications for use of image data" and "remote telemetry" such as monitoring of plant/factory operations and health monitoring are the typical candidates of use cases for this scheme.
