In large-scale Internet of Things (IoT) systems, huge volumes of data are collected from anywhere at any time, which may invade people's privacy, especially when the systems are used in medical or daily living environments. Preserving privacy is an important issue, and higher privacy demands usually tend to require weaker identity. However, previous research has indicated that strong security tends to demand strong identity, especially in authentication processes. Thus, defining a good tradeoff between privacy and security remains a challenging problem. This motivates us to develop a privacy-preserving and accountable authentication protocol for IoT end-devices with weaker identity, which integrates an adapted construction of short group signatures and Shamir's secret sharing scheme. We analyze the security properties of our protocol in the context of six typical attacks and verify the formal security using the Proverif tool. Experiments using our implementation in MacBook Pro and Intel Edison development platforms show that our authentication protocol is feasible in practice. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
