Practical Considerations and Implementation Experiences in Securing Smart Object Networks
RFC 8387, “Practical Considerations and Implementation Experiences in Securing Smart Object Networks”, is an Informational document published in May 2018 by M. Sethi, J. Arkko, A. Keranen, H. Back. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This memo describes challenges associated with securing resource- constrained smart object devices. The memo describes a possible deployment model where resource-constrained devices sign message objects, discusses the availability of cryptographic libraries for resource-constrained devices, and presents some preliminary experiences with those libraries for message signing on resource- constrained devices. Lastly, the memo discusses trade-offs involving different types of security approaches.
