Funded Activity Summary

Lightweight security framework for Low-Power Wide-Area Network (LPWAN). This project aims to design and implement a lightweight security framework for Low Power Wide Area Networks (LPWAN). Smart cities are estimated to have a worldwide market value of US$1.5 trillion by 2020, and LPWAN will provide connectivity to 90% of low bandwidth, smart city applications such as smart metres and smart buildings. Many of these applications are deployed in mission-critical infrastructure such as airport, train station, hospital and government campuses, which have strong security requirements. Before the ubiquitous deployment of such new technology, a strong security framework needs to be developed and implemented to minimise enormous economic and social consequences of future malicious attacks to LPWAN.
