Abstract Internet of Things (IoT) is an interconnection of tiny real-world objects using sensor, actuators, and software’s designed for exchanging data and controlling them. It invades business landscape on massive scale integrating heterogeneous devices. Some of the application includes media, environmental monitoring, infrastructure and energy management, medical, healthcare system, and transportation. Earlier, in these applications, the primary issue is handling efficient communication among the interconnected devices to have an extended network lifetime. Nowadays, as data grows rapidly in the IoT, security and privacy is also a major issue to be concentrated in these applications to reduce vulnerabilities. Recent studies show that the existing IP security protocols and algorithm have technical limitation in applying it to the context Internet of Things. In particular, when a new device enters to an existing secured network, the network should ensure that the new device is authenticated and authorized properly with respect to the properties of existing network. Otherwise, similar to other network, IoT network also will be subjected to various attacks such as physical attacks, service disruption attacks, data attacks, and denial-of-service attacks. Hence, in this work, an algorithm to authenticate and authorize when a new device gets added to the existing network is proposed. The algorithm is tested for various attacks and the results are proven to be efficient and secure. Keywords Internet of Things (IoT) ECC algorithm

1 Introduction The Internet of Things (IoT) is a contemporary domain which has the ability to connect all real-world object/things around us and assign a unique ID and get connected to Internet. This ID helps the user to fetch the data from the objects easily without involving human-to-thing interaction similar to a web data access. The term IoT implicitly states that the standard Internet protocol is used communicating between things. The concept may also be entrusted as the Internet of Everything. The popularity of this domain is because this IoT system fits in easily in the Internet infrastructure. The main goal of this domain is to empower things to connect things around us eventually irrespective of the time, location, and person using any network and service [1]. The applications of IoT are essentially endless. It consists of environmental monitoring, framework management, energy conservation, home and office automation, transportation, medical and healthcare systems, and a particularly aggress
