TY - JOUR AU - AB - In the world of wireless communication, heterogeneous network topologies such as Wi-Fi and Long-Term Evolution (LTE) the topologies authentication service delivery forms a major challenge with access control; which is sought to be addressed. In this paper, we propose a security model by adapting Capability-based Context Aware Access Control (CCAAC) model for internet-enabled devices for defense against hacking or unauthorized access. The steps applied during the programming of this web application was followed through using the Elliptic-Curve Diffie–Hellman (ECCDH) algorithm so that the initiation of a random prime number between a range, the encryption and exchange of the devices public keys to the decryption are interpreted the right way to the machine making use of it. The results established a security model that has a good chance of being effective against present cyber-attacks other security loopholes. Keywords: security, capability-based context aware access control model, elliptic-curve diffie-hellman algorithm 1. Introduction As technology keeps on growing and new inventions of internet devices created, there is need to provide countermeasures for the protection of personal and business information, privacy and an assured integrity status of any internet-enabled host devices. A security system is a system that enforces boundaries between computer networks (Bishop, TI - A Secured System for Internet Enabled Host Devices JF - Network and Communication Technologies DO - 10.5539/nct.v5n1p26 DA - 2020-02-06 UR - https://www.deepdyve.com/lp/unpaywall/a-secured-system-for-internet-enabled-host-devices-oze6FDOOPY DP - DeepDyve ER -
