Popis: Internet of Things (IoT), currently, is one of the most rapidly developing technology trends. However, at present, users, devices, and applications using IoT services mainly connect to IoT service providers in a client-server model. Each IoT service provider has its own management mechanism and internal message exchange method. This results in the isolation between IoT service providers, and it is challenging to connect these organizations into an IoT network. Besides, one of the most popular protocols in IoT deployments, Message Queuing Telemetry Protocol (MQTT), also has significant security and privacy issues. Therefore, in this paper, we propose an IoT Platform Model capable of improving the MQTT protocol’s security problem by using a Single Sign-On. Also, this model allows the organizations to provide the IoT services to connect into a single network but does not change too much of each organization’s current architecture. We describe the evaluation to prove the effectiveness of our approach. Specifically, we check the number of concurrent users who can publish messages simultaneously for two internal communication and external communication; furthermore, a complete code solution is publicized on the authors’ GitHub repository to engage further reproducibility and improvement.
