Abstract :
The increasing density of the electronic devices in everyday activities is turning system interoperability into an emerging research scenario with a clear impact on life quality. Interoperability architectures try to overcome the complexity related to the heterogeneous procedures, interfaces and access protocols required to operate devices by providing users a single control point on their electronic environment. The INREDIS project has addressed this challenge by designing a cloud based service-oriented architecture to be deployed both on home and outdoor scenarios aimed to enhance the interoperability capabilities with accessibility features. In this paper we describe the specific security challenges that have been addressed and how a heterogeneous interoperability architecture involving a wide range set of electronic devices could be secured from a unified approach. The deployed infrastructure, built upon server-based security in combination with digital certificates, has provided promising outcomes through the target deployment scenarios. In addition, further research lines on securing interoperability for devices with constrained resources have also been described.
