Abstract

In the IoT (Internet of Things), the CBAC (Capability-Based Access Control) model is proposed to make sensor and actuator devices secure. Here, an owner of a device issues a capability token, i.e. a set of access rights to a subject. The subject is then allowed to manipulate resource objects in the device according to the access rights in the capability token. There is a problem a subject sb can get data from a resource object \(r^1\) brought to another resource \(r^2\) by getting the data from the resource \(r^2\) even if the subject sb is not allowed to get data from the resource \(r^1\). Here, the data in the resource \(r^1\) illegally flow to the subject sb. In our previous studies, the OI (Operation Interruption) protocol is proposed where illegal operations are interrupted and is evaluated in the simulation. In this paper, we implement a device supporting the OI protocol and evaluate the authorization process of the OI protocol in terms of the execution time. In the evaluation, we make clear the features of the execution time of the authorization process for get and put operations in the OI protocol.
