研究目的
The problem or phenomenon addressed in this study is the security vulnerabilities associated with accessing modern smart homes over the Internet. The study aims to propose a two-stage verification process for smart homes, using device fingerprints and login credentials, to verify both the user device and the user accessing the home over the Internet.
研究成果
The study concludes that the proposed two-stage verification process, combining device fingerprinting with login credentials, significantly improves home security when accessed over the Internet. The device fingerprinting algorithm was able to uniquely identify 97.93% of devices accessing the test website, with an entropy of over 22 bits. The inclusion of geolocation data and parameter validation further enhances the accuracy and legitimacy of the generated fingerprints.
研究不足
The technical and application constraints of the experiments include the inability to uniquely identify devices with identical configurations, such as those with cloned hard disks. Additionally, the experiment was restricted to PCs and laptops using the four most popular web browsers, and access to the test website was limited to trusted individuals to maintain data accuracy.
