Abstract: Internet of Things (IoT) is a unique element in the realm of Cybersecurity. It constitutes countless applications, including defense, health, agriculture, finance, amongst other industries. The majority of existing studies focus on various developments of IoT products and services essential to our day-to-day activities, with little emphasis on the security of developed systems. This has led to the proliferation of IoT solutions acquired through rapid development and overlooking the need for a structured security framework during the systems’ development stages. IoT security capability can be improved by using complementary technologies. This paper explores applying Risk-Based Access Control Model using Blockchain to control access to IoT devices. Although current access control models provide efficient security measures to control who can access the system resources, there is no way to detect and prevent malicious attacks after granting access. The proposed solution utilizes smart co ntracts under the Hyperledger Fabric (HLF) Blockchain Framework to create access permissions and measure the security risks associated with any event in the IoT system and create access permissions to determine what processes may be performed. This will allow the detection of any malicious activity at the early stages of the attack and grant or deny access based on the risk associated with any activity. (More)
