M2M security threat and security mechanism research

Abstract

M2M is the core technology to implement the internet of things, and it is applied to collect, transmit and manage the business information in power industry, mining industry and transportation industry. This article firstly introduces the concept of the M2M and gives the network architecture of the M2M technology. Then it analyzes the security threats of M2M including false trigger indication, stealing the M2M devices, moving the M2M devices to unauthorized location and node compromise attack in the M2M terminal layer, and stealing or tampering the information or DOS attack in the M2M network layer, the threat of system reliability in the M2M application system. On the basis of these, the current security mechanisms are given including node location identifiers, detecting the node compromise attack, Two-Way Authentication and dual system.
