Original Abstract

The chapter delivers the detailed discussion of the potential security threats, features, and mechanisms for the low power wide area (LPWA) networks in general, and the three dominant LPWA technologies - LoRaWAN, cellular Internet of Things (IoT) (e.g., Cat-NB1) and Sigfox, which currently dominate the market, in particular. We start by identifying the key actors, their interrelations and interfaces in the context of a generalized LPWA network architecture, and then determine the potential security threats and attack vectors. Next, we specify sixteen major security features and discuss how each of the three technologies approaches each feature. This manner of presentation enables not only to develop an in-depth understanding of the security mechanism underlying particular LPWA technology but also facilitates comparison of the approaches taken by the technology developers and implementers. Finally, we also take a look in the future – towards the time when LPWA technology might get integrated with the 5G. Specifically, we focus on the the security aspects related to the use of LPWA and IoT as a part of the 5G, identify the gaps and discuss some of the further steps to be taken.
