Lightweight authentication method for supporting anonymous access of heterogeneous terminal in edge computing scene

Abstract

The invention provides a lightweight authentication method for supporting anonymous access of a heterogeneous terminal in an edge computing scene. According to the invention, a pseudo identity is created for each terminal device by using a cloud platform to hide the real identity information of the terminal device; meanwhile, malicious terminal equipment can be traced back; the invention disclosesa method for authenticating an access edge computing node of terminal equipment. The edge computing node can verify the legality of the identities of all accessed devices under the condition of not communicating with the cloud platform; according to the method and the device, the real identity information of the terminal cannot be learned, the identity privacy of the terminal equipment is guaranteed, the access authentication efficiency is improved, common threats such as replay attacks can be resisted, the safety and reliability of the whole edge computing system are enhanced, and the problem of access authentication of the terminal equipment with limited resources in an edge computing scene is solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention belongs to the field of edge computing information security, and specifically relates to a lightweight authentication mechanism that supports anonymous access of heterogeneous terminals in an edge computing scenario. Background technique [0002] As the trend of the Internet of Everything continues to deepen, IoT technology and smart devices have increasingly penetrated into people's daily lives. Smart technology has taken the lead in applications in industries such as manufacturing, electric power, and transportation. Edge computing expands traditional cloud services. To the edge of the network, with the network edge device as the core, the service can reside on the edge device, while processing massive data, it can also ensure efficient network operation and service delivery, closer to users, and suitable for networks with low latency requirements However, the rise of edge computing also brings new challenges to the information ...
