Abstract

In the IoT (Internet of Things), data are exchanged among subjects and objects in devices through manipulating objects. Here, even if subjects manipulate objects according to the CBAC (Capability-Based Access Control) model, the subjects can get data which the subjects are not allowed to get, i.e. illegal information flow and late information flow occur. In order to make the IoT secure, the OI (Operation Interruption) and the TBOI (Time-Based OI) protocols are implemented to interrupt operations occurring illegal and late types of information flows. In addition, two types of capability token selection algorithms are proposed to make the protocols more useful. In our previous studies, an electric energy consumption model of a device supporting the information flow control is proposed. In this paper, electric energy consumption of each protocol is made clear based on the energy consumption model. In the simulation evaluation, it is shown that the total electric energy consumption in the OI and the TBOI protocols with capability token selection algorithms is smaller than the conventional OI and TBOI protocols.
