Recently, the Internet of Things (IoT) is growing rapidly. IoT sensors are attached to various devices, and information is detected, collected and utilized through various wired and wireless communication environments. As the IoT is used in various places, IoT devices face a variety of malicious attacks such as MITM and reverse engineering. To prevent these, encryption is required for device-to-device communication, and keys required for encryption must be properly managed. We propose a scheme to generate seed needed for key generation and a scheme to manage the public key using blockchain.

As Industries and Data Center plan to implement Software Defined Networking (SDN), the main concern is the anxiety about security. The Industries and Data Centers are curious to know how a SDN product will support them that their data, supporting applications and built in infrastructure are not vulnerable to threats. The initiation of SDN, will demand new pathways for securing control plane traffic. The traditional networks usually trust switching intelligence to implement various defense mechanisms besides known attacks. Many attacks which distress traditional networks also affect SDNs, partially due to SDN architecture complexities and most prominent among them is DoS. This paper identifies the pathways of threats to SDN systems and discuss methods to ways to mitigate them.
