Analysis of security problems in groups of intelligent sensors

Abstract

Today, the creation of intelligent sensors became possible due to the development of the hardware base, the use of small boards, where the processor, memory, and network interfaces can be placed. Examples of such cards can be Raspberry Pi, Arduino, and others. These devices can be used to connect various sensors to them depending on the tasks. Today, there are many protocols for the exchange of messages between such sender devices, which ultimately leads to the creation of distributed networks with distributed functionality. Such systems can be decision-making and are like swarm intelligence, where each device performs its functions, but together they are a single system. This study will examine the information security issues of such systems. An analysis of threats and vulnerabilities for intelligent sensor systems was carried out. Demonstrated an attack on the secure ZigBee protocol, which is often used to create a network between smart sensors. The use of lightweight cryptography to minimize risks is proposed
