title = "A Secure RPL Rank Computation and Distribution Mechanism for Preventing Sinkhole Attack in IoT-based Systems",
abstract = "The sinkhole attack detection mechanisms that have been reported till date are distributed in nature. Defending a sinkhole attack requires protecting the act of forging the rank computation task. This paper propose a secure centralized mechanism to ensure protection of rank computation process against sinkhole nodes in the IoT-Based Systems. The expectation maximization algorithm is used to optimally cluster the nodes into a group bearing the same rank. The distribution of ranks to the nodes is protected by the signature of the sink. The experimental results show that the optimal rank computation is secure against sinkhole nodes, however requires additional network communication between nodes and the sink node.",
