Abstract The rapid adoption of Internet of Things (IoT) technologies has introduced significant security challenges across the physical, network, and application layers, particularly with the widespread use of the Message Queue Telemetry Transport (MQTT) protocol, which, while efficient in bandwidth consumption, lacks inherent security features, making it vulnerable to various cyber threats. This research addresses these challenges by presenting a secure, lightweight communication proxy that enhances the scalability and security of MQTT-based Internet of Things (IoT) networks. The proposed solution builds upon the Dang-Scheme, a mutual authentication protocol designed explicitly for resource-constrained environments and enhances it… More >

Abstract Predictive maintenance is a vital aspect of the industrial sector, and the use of Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) sensor nodes is becoming increasingly popular for detecting motor faults and monitoring motor conditions. An integrated approach for acquiring, processing, and wirelessly transmitting a large amount of data in predictive maintenance applications remains a significant challenge. This study presents an IIoT-based sensor node for industrial motors. The sensor node is designed to acquire vibration data on the radial and axial axes of the motor and utilizes a hybrid approach for efficient data processing via edge and… More >

Abstract In the era of the Internet of Things (IoT), the ever-increasing number of devices connected to the IoT networks also increases the energy consumption on the edge. This is prohibitive since the devices living on the edge are generally resource constrained devices in terms of energy consumption and computational power. Thus, trying to tackle this issue, in this paper, a fully automated end-to-end IoT system for real time monitoring of the status of a moving vehicle is proposed. The IoT system consists mainly of three components: (1) the ultra-low power consumption Wireless Sensor Node (WSN),… More >

Abstract Internet of things (IoT) is used in various fields such as smart cities, smart home, manufacturing industries, and healthcare. Its application in healthcare has many advantages and disadvantages. One of its most common protocols is Message Queue Telemetry Transport (MQTT). MQTT protocol works as a publisher/subscriber which is suitable for IoT devices with limited power. One of the drawbacks of MQTT is that it is easy to manipulate. The default security provided by MQTT during user authentication, through username and password, does not provide any type of data encryption, to ensure confidentiality or integrity. This… More >

Abstract A portable electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring system is essential for elderly and remote patients who are not able to visit the hospital regularly. The system connects a patient to his/her doctor through an Internet of Things (IoT) cloud server that provides all the information needed to diagnose heart diseases. Patients use an ECG monitoring device to collect and upload information regarding their current medical situation via the Message Queue Telemetry Transport (MQTT) protocol to the server. The IoT cloud server performs further analysis that can be useful for both the doctor and the patient. Moreover, the… More >
