Towards a Lightweight Continuous Authentication Protocol for Device-to-Device Communication
Open accessAbstract
Continuous Authentication (CA) has been proposed as a potential solution to counter complex cybersecurity attacks that exploit conventional static authentication mechanisms that authenticate users only at an ingress point. However, widely researched human user characteristics-based CA mechanisms cannot be extended to continuously authenticate Internet of Things (IoT) devices. The challenges are exacerbated with the increased adoption of device-to-device (d2d) communication in critical infrastructures. Existing d2d authentication protocols proposed in the literature are either prone to subversion or are computationally infeasible to be deployed on constrained IoT devices. In view of these challenges, we propose a novel, lightweight and secure CA protocol that leverages communication channel properties and a tunable mathematical function to generate dynamically changing session keys. Our preliminary informal protocol analysis suggests that the proposed protocol is resistant to known attack vectors and thus has strong potential for deployment in securing critical and resource-constrained d2d communication.

The continuous device-to-device authentication mechanism that leverages Wi-Fi channel state information may only be employed on Wi-Fi-enabled devices.
“However, this mechanism may only be employed on Wi-Fi-enabled devices.”
From Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA): A Comprehensive Survey (2022) · cites this paper as [56]
The Introduction and “Protocol Phases” section say the mechanism derives keys from wireless channel state information (CSI) for continuous device-to-device authentication. Our copy does not specify Wi-Fi CSI or state that the protocol can only be used on Wi-Fi-enabled devices (searched: Wi-Fi, 802.11, and device limitations). (LLM, conf=0.84)

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.
