A Fuzzy Logic Based Trust-ABAC Model for the Internet of Things

The Internet of Things (IoT) integrates a large amount of everyday life devices from heterogeneous network environments, bringing a great challenge into security and reliability management. In order to cope with certain challenges posed by device capacity and the nature of IoT networks, a lightweight access control model is needed to resolve security and privacy issues. In this paper, we present Fuzzy logic based Trust-ABAC model, an access control model for the Internet of Things. Our model for the IoT is an improvement of our previous work Trust-ABAC [3] by a new Fuzzy logic-based model in which we consider an evaluation of trust based on recommendations and social relationship that can deal effectively with certain types of malicious behavior that intend to mislead other nodes. Results prove the performance of the proposed model and its capabilities to detect the collision and singular attacks with high precision.
