Recently, majority of environmental monitoring systems use Internet of Things devices 1. The Nevada Solar Energy-Water-Environment Nexus project collects a large amount of environmental data from various remote sensors. In the previous research, we introduced REST API for communication and web service between senor and server 2. However, current RESTful web service has several issues for authentication system. We developed an ID-based authentication algorithm to achieve a secure RESTful web service. ID-based authentication is based on Boneh-Franklin ID-based encryption and REST URI. Such process enabled server to handle client's request by acknowledging client's URI rather than storing client's entire status for stateless REST. Also, such process resolves current problems generated by implementing REST authentication.
