Abstract


Internet of Mobile Things (IoMT) applications have the potential to solve many problems. Health and wellness, logistics and smart cities are some areas that can benefit from it. A frequent approach to IoMT solutions involves the use of middleware, which aims to serve as a basis for developing applications. In this paper, we propose the addition, for optional use, of a security layer to the M-Hub/CDDL middleware. The main goal of the proposed solution is to guarantee secure communication, authentication and access control. By performing a performance evaluation, the computational cost regarding processing and memory consumption in the mobile side of the solution was identified due
to the use of the layer.
