- Abstract
Due to the exponential growth of wireless devices and the rapid development of smartphone's computing and storage capabilities, interests on using smartphone to remote access and manipulate smart home facilities have been increased greatly in recent days. However, this application context requires smartphones to store, process and transfer some security-critical data, which makes them vulnerable to various security threats. Therefore, for smart home application context, robust remote user authentication should be considered. This paper presents an efficient cloud-based communication architecture and a confidential authentication scheme that provide a guaranteed secure remote access to target smart home devices. The proposed scheme aims to satisfy several authentication requirements including flexibility, security and robustness by introducing a series of technologies such as cloud, electronic access token, ARM TrustZone. Our solution also allows users to delegate their access rights and revoke them either automatically or manually whenever necessary. Moreover, a security analysis is provided to demonstrate whether our scheme could defend the common security attacks.
