  3. Abstract:
  4. Internet of Things (IoT) represents enabling all things in such a smart way that those things be accessed any time and anywhere through the Internet. Presence of IoT as a novel way of networking, opens up new concernsaround the communication and network world. A secure establishing in such a diffused network is a great concerns of the researchers. Due to Smart things' resource-constraints and power-limitation the former ways of securing networks cannot be applicable in IoT. Thus, security bootstrapping has introduced a solution for establishing security in the first instance of deploying the network. In this study, we have proposed a security bootstrapping solution which can be applied in IoT environment. This security bootstrapping focused on the authentication phase of security as a basis. Our solution is based on having a unique device identifier, which physical address was chosen. Devices can automatically introduce themselves to the router of IoT network by their unique identifier with the minimum of human intervention. Besides, we suggest that an IoT Center to be a trusted medium between the manufacturer of smart things and the buyers. Therefore, we make a connection between the router and the IoT Center. © 2020 Scientific Publishers. All rights reserved
