To provide security for group communication a key management scheme incorporating Bilinear pairing technique withMulticast and Unicast key management protocol (BMU-IOT) for decentralizednetworks has been proposed. The first part of the proposed work is to dividethe network into clusters where sensors are connected to and is administered bycluster head. Each sensor securely shares its secret keys with the cluster headusing unicast. Based on these decryption keys, the cluster head generates a common encryption key using bilinear pairing. Any sensor in the subgroup candecrypt the message, which is encrypted by the common encryption key. Theremaining part focuses to reduce communication, computation and storage costsof the proposed framework and the resilience against various attacks. The implementation is carried out and results are compared with the existing schemes thathave given considerably better results. Thus, the lightweight devices of IoT canprovide efficiency and security by reducing their overhead in terms of complexity.展开更多
