Abstract:

Smart objects as the supporting entity for the bottom layer of the Internet of things. The identity authentication technology is a necessary prerequisite for the secure communication between smart objects. Blockchain, as a technology that has the characteristics of data not being tampered, trust decentralization, and book disclosure, provides a new idea for smart object authentication schemes. In this paper, a smart object authentication scheme based on blockchain technology is designed and proposed by combining the respective characteristics of blockchain and smart objects. Based on this, a smart object authentication algorithm combined with zero-knowledge proof and blockchain is designed and implement a prototype system of the smart object authentication scheme.

Key words: Internet of things, blockchain, smart object, authentication
