IoT Security: One Slide Primer

Variably-constrained devices

Variably-constrained environment & networks

Remote locations, variable physical security

Diverse IoT market segments, threat models

Variable criticality of the IoT applications

Start with a threat model

Safety

Bad things can happen in the real

world

How can we defend against these threats?

Secure Communications with Things

Strong Thing Identity

Fine-grained Authorisation for: Thing Management (Control plane) Pub/Sub Data Access (Data plane) Access to Services (To add features)

Secure Communications with Things

Mutual TLS Authentication

TLS/SSL

MUTUAL TLS AUTHENTICATION

Public Key Cryptography Options

For same bits & level of security ECC keys are much smaller that RSA keys

Communicating with non-things (Humans)

How we implement this

MQTT + Mutual Authn TLS AWS Authn + HTTPS

Server Authn TLS + Cert TLS + Cert

Client Authn TLS + Cert AWS API Keys

Confidentiality TLS TLS

Amtel Zero Touch Secure Provisioning Kit

If you spend a lot of time on securing your IoT applications,

you’re not spending time solving problems for your customers.

So don’t build a platform, unless you’re building a platform. In

which case, fine, build a platform.

Building ‘Hello World’ (for IoT Developers)

Turns out, developers are creative

How does it work?Invoke a Lambda function

Put object in an S3 bucket

Insert, Update, Read from a DynamoDB table

Publish to an SNS Topic or Endpoint

Publish to a Kinesis stream

But wait, I live in Europe and I want to do this. Right now!

HARDWARE YOU WILL (& MIGHT) NEED

• A Raspberry Pi

• Electronics Kit • Try the SunFounder 37 modules Sensor Kit v2.0 for

Raspberry Pi 3, 2, Model B+ with 40-Pin GPIO Extension Board & Jump Wires

• http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B014PF05ZA • Example tutorial

• Raspberry Pi Sense Hat (optional fun) • https://www.raspberrypi.org/products/sense-hat/

SETTING UP FOR GPIO/SENSE HAT

Your own electronics/sensor build C (for embedded C)

http://wiringpi.com Python Wrapper Module for WiringPI

https://github.com/WiringPi/WiringPi-Python

For the Sense Hat Python Module

https://github.com/RPi-Distro/python-sense-hat

SETTING UP FOR AWS IOT

Use the AWS Console to create your device

Download the required crypto materials & save the C header file contents with your endpoint, cert, and key details

Download & set up your chosen AWS IoT SDK Get them at : https://aws.amazon.com/iot/sdk/

Building the C SDK on the Raspberry Pi requires the CppUTest library from: https://github.com/cpputest/cpputest/releases/tag/v3.6

Get started with the sample applications that come with the AWS SDKs

EXAMPLES & DEMOS
