Abstract

The term ¡°IoT¡± (Internet of Things) can be defined as many small physical objects (having capability of sensing something from environment) connected to each other via some interconnecting networks to collect, share and convey information [1]. With the help of these small interconnected sensors or objects, we can automate a certain systems [2]. A smart hospital can be an example in which doctors can monitor the symptoms of a patient remotely as Wireless Body Area Network in IoT environment [3]. There can be other potential usage of IoT which includes schools, Traffic and Agriculture etc. One of the very important aspects of IoT is security which is still an open issue. Most of the proposed architectures do not define data confidentiality and integrity in detail. In conventional networks AES encryption technique can be used for similar purpose [4] however it can¡¯t be used for small devices with limited power and processing capabilities [5]. In this paper, we propose an efficient security implementation for IoT system in a typical WBAN environment having low power and limited processing devices.
