Incorporating IoT in Enterprises with ELS

Abstract

A number of small computing devices, mechanical and digital machines, objects, sensors, and controllers of other devices are provided with unique identifiers (UIDs) and the ability to transfer data over a network without requiring human-to-human or human-to-computer interaction. These devices are functional and inexpensive and are termed collectively as the Internet of Things (IoT). Many of the devices do not have enough memory or computing power to participate in even basic security. How does one take advantage of the IoT functionality while maintaining security functionality in high assurance systems? This paper examines a preliminary formulation that is pertinent to the Enterprise Level Security (ELS) model.
