  Abstract

With the convenience and security provided by the Matter standard, many companies have recently developed appliances based on this standard. The Matter standard employs security mechanisms such as network and user authentication, OTA authentication, and session-based control, which allow only authenticated users to access devices. However, in environments such as hotels or shared offices, requiring all users to undergo prior authentication is cumbersome and procedurally complex. In this paper, we propose a temporary token authentication method that enables smart home devices to be controlled without prior authentication by issuing short-term tokens. The proposed method grants a check-in token via QR code at check-in, immediately revokes the token at check-out, and, if necessary, issues a refresh token to restrict IoT device control privileges within a limited time period. An application was developed to register the Tapo L535E bulb via QR code and control its power and color, demonstrating that Matter-based devices can be remotely controlled.
