Abstract: To overcome the problems of long detection time and large detection error in traditional vulnerability detection methods for the authentication protocol in the internet of technology (IOT), this paper proposes a new method based on improved wavelet packet for vulnerability detection of the authentication protocol in the IOT. This method uses the improved wavelet packet to preprocess the data packet and form a small amount of original data. Combined with the method of protocol state diagram, it improves the coverage of traversal path and the effectiveness of trial cases. At the same time, it uses the method of sending TCP detection packets to detect whether there is vulnerability in the IOT authentication protocol. The experimental results show that the proposed method can effectively reduce the detection time and improve the detection accuracy, with the highest detection accuracy of 98.2%.

Keywords: improved wavelet packet; IOT; internet of technology; authentication protocol; vulnerability detection; traversal path; protocol state diagram; simulation.
