Device Management for Connected Devices
The challenge
● Various:
o Technologies
o Hardware
o Devices
o Applications
● How do we manage all this?
What is device management for?
● Configure a device
● Enroll a device
● Update firmware
● Monitor and gather connectivity statistics
● Secure a device
● Manage fleets of deployed devices
To enroll the device
● A need for an Agent App
● Specific agents for specific hardware
● Identify the device
● Identify the owner of the device -
Authentication
To enroll the device
● If the device has a UI:
o Common username/password identification
● Options if there is no UI:
o Store the unique ID of the device in the server
o Register the device, then activate from the server
o Separate agents for each device with a unique ID
o Generate a unique ID in the server and use in the
agent
To query the device
● The agent:
o Passes the device metadata (model, vendor,
os,..) to the server
o Passes the device capability (what it can do)
o The server executes device management
commands on the device
Device Management: Protocols
● Main goal: Provide an application agnostic way to
manage devices
● TR - 069:
o SOAP based, not very useful for IoT
● OMA - DM
o HTML/XML based with binary XML encoding
● Lightweight M2M
o OMA-DM successor for M2M
Device Management: Protocols
● OMA - DM:
o An Open Mobile Alliance standard for Device
Management
o Targets mobile phone terminals, but can be
used in M2M
o Meant to be used by mobile phone operators
Device Management: Protocols
● OMA - DM Features:
o Read, write configuration or monitoring nodes
o Trigger remote commands
o Firmware Update Management Object
o Software Component Management Object
Device Management: Protocols
● OMA - DM firmware update example:<Add>
<CmdID>1</CmdID>
<Item>
<Target>
<LocURI>./FwUpdate/{package identifier}/DownloadAndUpdate/PkgURL</LocURI>
</Target>
<Data>http://{package download server http address}/{update_package.pks}</Data>
</Item>
<Item>
<Target>
<LocURI>./FwUpdate/{package identifier}/PkgName</LocURI>
</Target>
<Data>{package name}</Data>
</Item>
</Add>
Replace the
DownloadAndUpdate/
PkgURL with the
package download
URI.
Device Management: Protocols
● OMA - DM firmware update example:<Exec>
<CmdID>2</CmdID>
<Item>
<Target>
<LocURI>./FwUpdate/{package
identifier}/DownloadAndUpdate</LocURI>
</Target>
</Item>
</Exec>Set the Exec command to the
DownloadAndUpdate node so that it
initiates the download and immediate
installation of the package contents.

Security Challenges for IoT
Is it needed?
● Google hacking:
o Search queries that identify endpoints with a security
flaw: intitle:cam inurl:ViewerFrame?Mode=
o Get access to roadcams that were not meant to be
publicly visible
o 2011: Hack against Fitbit identified users that recently
had sex: “sexual activity” site:fitbit.com
o Source: forbes
o Hack against the website, not the device itself
Is it needed?
● Jun 2013:
o A google hack pointed to a list of “smart homes”
o All homes had the same automation system that
allowed remote control of lights, hot tubs, fans,
televisions, water pumps, garage doors, cameras, and
other devices
o No authentication was required to activate and use the
connected devices remotely
● Source: forbes
Is it needed?
● Jan 2014:
o Security researcher followed an IP that was sending
spam
o The IP address belonged to a fridge
o The researcher managed to log-in and use the fridge’s
web-admin
o The manufacturer embedded a linux system with no
security enabled
● Source: BBC
Is it needed?
● Shodan: http://www.shodanhq.com/
o A search engine to find devices that are
connected to the internet
o Allows to find: traffic lights, security cameras,
home heating systems, control systems for
water parks, gas stations, water plants, power
grids, nuclear power plants, particle-
accelerating cyclotrons ...
Is it needed?
● Shodan: http://www.shodanhq.com/
o Many devices have little security
o "admin" as username and "1234" as password
o Other devices are simply unprotected
o The only tool needed: an internet browser
o How to find and hack devices using Shodan: WonderHowTo
● Google:
o exploit-db
o Try this or this
How is security in IoT different?
● The data is highly personal
● Manufacturers don’t think like security experts
● Embedded systems are developed using existing designs,
chips…
● Device capabilities (crypto) are limited
● Updates are hard or impossible
● Ease of use is at odds with security
Physical Hacks
● 2008: Dutch government issued a warning about the
security of access keys based on the MiFare Classic
RFID chip widely used in building-access and public
transportation payment cards in Europe
● ...And every military base in the Netherlands
● $3000 equipment was used to hack it
● 2014: NFC hack for Android devices enables to unlock
any android phone with NFC by simply picking it up
● Source: computerworld
Security guidelines for IoT
● Not to rely on obscurity :
o RFID, NFC chips might not be as secure as you think
they are
● Hacking one device should not risk other devices of the same type
● Connectivity:
o Connection protocols might be encrypted
o Stages before the encryption (key exchange) are
neglected (Bluetooth Low Energy)
Security guidelines for IoT
● RSA cryptography on 8-bit chips is slow (minutes), painful and
expensive ...and you can’t replace them with ARM because cost
matters:
o 8 bit chips: 5$ retail, 1$ or less to embed
o 32 bit chips: 25$ retail, ++ to embed
● Elliptic Curve Cryptography is an alternative:
o ATECC108 8-bit chip provides a full turnkey Elliptic
Curve Digital Signature Algorithm engine with 238 bit
keys
Security guidelines for IoT
● Also there is Speck - a family of lightweight block ciphers!
o But they are released by the NSA
● People think that Wifi chips (WPA) provide security
o They secure only in the LAN
o Do not solve the end-to-end crypto problem
Security guidelines for IoT
● Traditional security:
o Firewalls
o Perimeters
● Not suitable for IoT:
o Devices are out in the: field, cars, homes…
o Devices are moving and stationary
o The identity of the device should act as it’s security
perimeter
Security guidelines for IoT
● Passwords?
o Designed to be input on-the-fly/on-demand
o Designed to be changed
o Do not work well with humans
o Do not suit the connected devices
Security guidelines for IoT
● Giving a device a token to use on API calls is better than
giving it a password:
o Revocable
o Granular
● Relevant for:
o Device to cloud
o Cloud to app
Security guidelines for IoT
● Alternatives for passwords:
o For devices: OAUTH 2 - an open standard to
authorization
o For humans: OpenID connect - an authentication layer
on top of OAUTH 2
o Example: You use it when you authorize an app to this
and not to do that on your device
o Challenge: Both OAUTH and OpenID were made to
work with HTTP, not MQTT
Security guidelines for IoT
● Do not rely on firewalls only:
o Monitor for failed access attempts
o Use real-time event processing for fraud detection:
Identify hackers
Identify devices that may have been compromised
● Device management is vital:
o Update devices with secure keys
o Lock compromised devices remotely
Security guidelines in general
● How are you going to protect the privacy of your users?
● Privacy by design:
o Design the system to avoid privacy breaches
o Flatten the data rather than storing a record
per user+date
o Don’t store data you don’t require
o Delete historic data that is not needed
Internet of Things

o Developer-friendly
IoT API Management
● Examples of modeling device capabilities as HTTP
resources:
o Humidity sensor:
http://ip/locationID/sensors/humidity - GET
o Turbine:
http://ip/locationID/actuators/turbine1/rotate - POST
http://ip/locationID/actuators/turbine1/status - GET
IoT API Management
● Sensor nodes participating in a flat or two-tier sensor
network are not IoT
● Unless you can get your data to higher end computational
devices
● API devices: sensors that are coupled to a device that
already speaks Web APIs
● An intermediate layer is needed to connect sensors and
networks to APIs, clouds, data-centers and devices.
IoT API Management
● Challenges require planning and foresight:
o Not every device/thing is API enabled
Smart-phones and tablets - are
A temperature sensor on a factory floor connected
via a wireless sensor network (WSN) - is not
IoT API Management
● Challenges require planning and foresight:
o Versioning/Updates
Not every device supports updates
o Support for ancient things
Devices have long lifecycles
o Performance and scalability
Long reliable operation with a large number of
devices
IoT API Management
● API management:
o Gateways management
o Security management
o Access management and control
o Authentication, authorization
o Leak protection
o Compliance and data security
IoT API Management
● Type 1: A single device with all API management
capabilities
● Type 2: The device gets all the requests and asks for a
confirmation from a separate authorization manager
● Type 3: An authorization gateway receives all the
requests, transmits the authorized requests to the device
● Type 4: A Combination of previous + Routing and stats
collection
● Type 5,6,.. : More complex patterns (Routing & Queues)
IoT API Management
