6. Conclusion and Future Works
We have proposed a cyber security framework for IoT-based Energy Internet, which comprises of an identity-based security mechanism (I-ICAAAN), a secure communication protocol and an Intelligent Security System for Energy Management (ISSEM). The framework provides adequate security and privacy to components, data and events, and supports enhanced energy management in the Energy Internet. Using AVISPA tool and theoretical analysis, we showed that the secure communication protocol is resilient against many security attacks and it is superior to existing related schemes. The correctness of the ISSEM is confirmed by the proof with Nash Equilibrum. The evaluation results show that our proposed framework is secure and efficient for the Energy Internet. As part of our ongoing work, we plan to develop secure and lightweight key exchange schemes for secure unicast, multicast and broadcast communications in the Energy Internet.
