Introduction

Analysis of Standard Technical Framework

This document establishes the technical system of the IoT device identification and authentication system (BIAS) based on blockchain. Its core architecture consists of the identity resolution agent (IDR agent), the identity object storage agent (IOS agent) and three groups of functional components:

Functional modules Core capabilities Technical features
IR-FC Identity lifecycle management Support for cross-solution identity exchange
AM-FC Authentication policy execution Multi-solution authentication module compatibility
PM-FC Storage policy control Support distributed/cloud hybrid storage

Key technical requirements

1. Identity management system

The system supports the composite identity structure of primary identity + alias. The identity object is encapsulated in JSON format, including:

  • Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) information
  • Authentication system digital signature
  • Storage location metadata

2. Storage architecture design

Adopt the identity-object separation storage mode:

Storage location Data type Security requirements
Blockchain system Identification package Tamper-proof storage
Cloud storage Identification object Customer-defined encryption

Key points for security implementation

Commercial cryptographic algorithm support

The standard explicitly requires support for the SM2/SM3/SM4 series of cryptographic algorithms to achieve security protection in the following links:

  1. Identification object transmission encryption
  2. Digital signature generation and verification
  3. Decentralized storage data protection

Privacy protection mechanism

Through the identification and naming mechanism:

  • The main identity is isolated from the business system
  • Alias can be revoked dynamically
  • Support hierarchical access control

Typical application scenarios

Cross-operator device authentication

For example, in the Intelligent Transportation System (ITS), vehicle equipment is implemented through BIAS:

Business process Traditional solution BIAS solution
Cross-domain authentication Centralized PKI interaction required End-to-end direct verification
Identity update Full-link synchronization Blockchain single-point write

Analysis of Standard Evolution

Compared with traditional identification solutions, BIAS is innovative in the following aspects:

  1. Decentralized trust: Ensure that identification cannot be tampered with through blockchain
  2. Hybrid storage architecture: Balance performance and security requirements
  3. Multi-solution compatibility: Support interoperability of different identification systems such as DID

This standard forms technical synergy with YD/T 3905-2021 to jointly build a decentralized IoT infrastructure.
