Abstract

As the power Internet of Things (IoT) enters the security construction stage, the massive use of perception layer devices urgently requires an identity authentication scheme that considers both security and practicality. The existing public key infrastructure (PKI)-based security authentication scheme is currently difficult to apply in many terminals in IoT. Its key distribution and management costs are high, which hinders the development of power IoT security construction. Combined Public Key (CPK) technology uses a small number of seeds to generate unlimited public keys. It is very suitable for identity authentication in the power Internet of Things. In this paper, we propose a novel identity authentication scheme for power IoT. The scheme combines the physical unclonable function (PUF) with improved CPK technology to achieve mutual identity authentication between power IoT terminals and servers. The proposed scheme does not require third-party authentication and improves the security of identity authentication for power IoT. Moreover, the scheme reduces the resource consumption of power IoT devices. The improved CPK algorithm solves the key collision problem, and the third party only needs to save the private key and the public key matrix. Experimental results show that the amount of storage resources occupied in our scheme is small. The proposed scheme is more suitable for the power IoT.
