Abstract

To address the privacy and security related challenges in Internet of Things (IoT) environment, we proposed a biometric method called BioSec to provide authentication in IoT integrated with edge consumer electronics with fingerprint authentication. Further, we ensured the security of biometric data both in the transmission channel and database with the standard encryption method. In this way, BioSec ensures secure and private communication among edge devices in IoT and Industry 4.0. Finally, we have compared three encryption methods used to protect biometric templates in terms of processing times and identified that AES-128-bit key encryption method outperforms others.

  • Guaranteeing data security and confidentiality is one of the most difficult challenges when implementing AI systems in edge computing situations.

    “While implementing AI systems in these kinds of situations, one of the most difficult challenges is going to be guaranteeing the data's security and confidentiality [114].”

    From Edge AI: A survey (2023) · cites this paper as [114]

    The Introduction (page unavailable) identifies data security and personal-data privacy as significant concerns in IoT, and the BioSec System section describes protecting biometric data on an edge device and in transit. The paper does not address implementing AI systems or rank this challenge among the most difficult, so the claim extends beyond its scope. (LLM, conf=0.85)

  • The major challenge to Edge Computing is security for users who may trust hardware manufacturers but lack access to identities of other components such as switches, routers, and base stations in publicly accessible modes.

    “The major challenge to Edge Computing is that of security for users who may have confidence in hardware from manufacturers they trust but have no access to the identities of other components: switches, routers and base stations in publicly accessible modes [114,131].”

    From Edge AI: A survey (2023) · cites this paper as [114]

    The Introduction (page unavailable) identifies security as a significant issue in IoT environments, and the Motivation and Our Contributions section proposes secure communication among edge devices. Neither section supports the specific account of users trusting hardware manufacturers while lacking access to the identities of switches, routers, or base stations. (LLM, conf=0.84)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured
  • Trust in the security of personal and socially sensitive data would increase if management of such data were ensured at the edge rather than in distant data centers.

    “These authors also asserted that trust in the security of personal and socially sensitive data would be increased if the management of such sensitive data could be ensured at the edge rather than being centred in distant data centres [114].”

    From Edge AI: A survey (2023) · cites this paper as [114]

    The Introduction and BioSec System sections discuss protecting personal biometric data through authentication and encryption, including storage in a server database. Searches for trust and for edge-based management versus distant data centers found no passage asserting that managing sensitive data at the edge would increase trust. (LLM, conf=0.74)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
