Abstract(in English) We have proposed Ticket-based Access Control, an access control system with a token called a ticket and Tag ID, which is an ID for data acquisition tied to multiple devices, to realize an IoT data distribution infrastructure that supports collection/analysis, scalability, and security of multiple types of IoT data. Ticket-based Access Control is an access control system with a token called a ticket and a Tag ID, which is an ID for acquiring data tied to multiple devices. In this access control, there is a third party called TAAI (Ticket Authentication and Authorization Infrastructure), which has a role of Broker in the Pub/Sub communication model and is always involved in authentication and authorization. The TAAI is a single point of failure because if the TAAI fails, the entire system would go down. Therefore, to eliminate the single point of failure in the Tag ID-based Pub/Sub model using Ticket-based AC, we propose a method to distribute the processing performed by the TAAI to each node by applying blockchain (BC) technology. By having the BC take charge of authentication, the load on each node can be reduced.
