Poster: Identity-Independent IoT for Overarching Policy Enforcement
Luoyao Hao, Henning G. Schulzrinne · 2024
Enforcing overarching policies such as safety norms and energy restrictions becomes critical as IoT scales and integrates into large systems. These policies should be applied preemptively and capable of adapting to system changes. Traditional IoT systems, reliant on fixed device identities, limit reliability, scalability, and resilience. Thus, we propose Identity-Independent IoT (I3oT), centered on adopting flexible descriptors to enforce policies. I3oT introduces a separate management plane on top of the standard operational workflow, thereby enhancing safety in scalable and integrated IoT systems.
