2019. From Internet of Threats to Internet of Things: A Cyber Security Architecture for Smart Homes. 2019 IEEE 24th International Workshop on Computer Aided Modeling and Design of Communication Links and Networks (CAMAD). :1–6.
The H2020 European research project GHOST - Safe-Guarding Home IoT Environments with Personalised Real-time Risk Control - aims to deploy a highly effective security framework for IoT smart home residents through a novel reference architecture for user-centric cyber security in smart homes providing an unobtrusive and user-comprehensible solution. The aforementioned security framework leads to a transparent cyber security environment by increasing the effectiveness of the existing cyber security services and enhancing system's self-defence through disruptive software-enabled network security solutions. In this paper, GHOST security framework for IoT-based smart homes is presented. It is aiming to address the security challenges posed by several types of attacks, such as network, device and software. The effective design of the overall multi-layered architecture is analysed, with particular emphasis given to the integration aspects through dynamic and re-configurable solutions and the features provided by each one of the architectural layers. Additionally, real-life trials and the associated use cases are described showcasing the competences and potential of the proposed framework.

2019. A Security-Enhanced Interoperability Middleware for the Internet of Things. 2019 7th International Symposium on Digital Forensics and Security (ISDFS). :1–6.
This paper documents an Internet of Things (IoT) middleware specially tailored to address the security, and operational requirements expected from an effective IoT platform. In essence, the middleware exposes a diverse palette of features, including authentication, authorization, auditing, confidentiality and integrity of data. Besides these aspects, the middleware encapsulates an IoT object abstraction layer that builds a generic object model that is independent from the device type (i.e., hardware, software, vendor). Furthermore, it builds on standards and specifications to accomplish a highly resilient and scalable solution. The approach is tested on several hardware platforms. A use case scenario is presented to demonstrate its main features. The middleware represents a key component in the context of the “GHOST - Safe-Guarding Home IoT Environments with Personalised Real-time Risk Control” project.
