Graph-based IoT microservice security

The Internet of Things (IoT) can be considered as Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) of Microservices (μS). The μSs inherently process data that affects the privacy, safety, and security of its users. IoT service security is a key challenge. Most state of the art providing IoT system security is policy based. We showcase a graph-based access control that runs as module on IoT nodes, or in the network. Our solution intercepts and firewalls inter-service communication. It automatically creates a model of legitimate communication relationships. The model is interactively updated via a simple-to-understand interface. Our solution adds inevitable IoT security to existing IoT systems.
