Proposing And Implementing A Solution To Protect Internet Of Things Environments

Résumé: Internet of Things (IoT) technology has attracted a lot of attention in recent years. It connects things to the internet, enabling insights that have never been available before. IoT is a large network of devices that includes various smart devices and sensors. These objects collect and exchange data. Their physical constraints as well as the hostile environments in which they could be deployed make the IoT vulnerable and require effective and inexpensive security mechanisms. In security, there are several methods used to protect things like a firewall. A firewall is a network security mechanism that monitors and controls incoming and outgoing network traffic (applications and data) based on predetermined security rules. A firewall generally establishes a barrier between a trusted network and an untrusted network, such as the Internet. However, the installation and maintenance of these require a very high cost. The objective of this project is to design and implement a distributed algorithm for finding nodes forming a dominating set in IOT environments. Thus, we propose an effective solution allowing us to reduce the cost of installing firewalls in the nodes of the system.
