Summary We formulate and study an intelligent and secure house electricity system on the basis of the Internet of Things. The security of sensitive data collected and transmitted by sensor nodes installed in home appliances and household electrical devices is critical, since the transmitted data can be easily manipulated by different types of attacks. The confidentiality and integrity of household electrical devices information must be assured to insure appropriate and timely response. Providing a secure aggregation mechanism is thus very essential to protect the integrity and the privacy of data aggregation. In this paper, we propose a secure data aggregation scheme that exploits compressed sensing (CS) to reduce the communication overhead of collected electrical power measurement. Then, the data will be encrypted by each sensor node after the compressing phase, and a cryptography hash algorithm is used to ensure data integrity. Finally, we apply an aggregation function for data priorities and then send the data for diagnosis. Then, we will present simulation results for the evaluation of the proposed electric energy management system.
