Abstract

In the era of the Internet, people can interconnect and obtain information via the network. Through the combinational use of network and various wireless communication sensing networks, objects can now communicate with each other through the Internet environment. Furthermore, as IT evolves and as IPv6 technology eventually matures, data transmission can be carried out between smart objects by using sensing networks, networking, and computing functions. This concept which is emerging into a network environment is known as the Internet of Things (IoT). However, the related researches of the IoT have not discussed the data insecurity issues. This study establishes security level agreements to ameliorate excessive computational loads with the lightweight security mechanism so that data can be protected in the perception layer, then the computational cost of data encrypted in the perception layer.
