Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) has enabled a wide range of sectors to interact effectively with their consumers in order to deliver seamless services and products. Despite the widespread availability of (IoT) devices and their Internet connectivity, they have a low level of information security integrity. A number of security methods were proposed and evaluated in our research, and comparisons were made in terms of energy and time in the encryption and decryption processes. A ratification procedure is also performed on the devices in the main manager, which is regarded as a full firewall for IoT devices. The suggested algorithm's success has been shown utilizing low-cost Adriano Uno and Raspberry Pi devices. Arduous Uno has been used to demonstrate the encryption process in low-energy devices using a variety of algorithms, including Enhanced Algorithm for Data Integrity and Authentication (EDAI) and raspberry, which serves as a safety manager in low-energy device molecules. A variety of enhanced algorithms used in conjunction with Blockchain software have also assured the security and integrity of the information. These findings and discussions are presented at the conclusion of the paper.

Lightweight Cryptographic for Securing Constrained Resource IoT Devices
Mohamed Senhadji

International Journal of Innovative Technology and Exploring Engineering, 2020

Internet of Things IoT become a recent concept of communication technologies and a novel computing paradigm. The idea is to connect a variety of objects or things (e.g., RFID tags, NFC tags, sensors, etc.), which can interact and exchange data with each other anywhere and everywhere over the internet. With the evolution of IoT, the volume of data interchanged among connecting IoT devices is increasing at a remarkable scale due to the increase in number of the connected objects. Most of IoT devices are constrained devices and low resources that handling confidential and sensitive data. Therefore, using conventional cryptographic methods are unsuitable due to many issues and challenges like limited computational power, memory space, energy resources, performance cost, and security requirement. For that, lightweight cryptographic primitives (LWC) have been introduced. Many kinds of research continue moving forward to find a suitable algorithm that meets the specific demands of the IoT ...

Sefer kurnaz

European Journal of Technic, 2020

In this paper, we discuss the security of the Internet of Things (IoT) which needs to utilize particular algorithms in order to offer low power consumption and a long lifespan, along with other parameters such as strong immunity against attacks, lower execution time and acceptable performance. The present work considers a simple lightweight security encryption algorithm (LSEA) to be compatible with IoT systems, named (LSEA-IoT) for improving the security issue in IoT devices. The new LSEA-IoT scheme has be implemented for encrypting texts and images data and several tests such as visual checking, histogram diagrams, entropy and correlation analyses are carried out in order to ensure the suitability of the LSEA algorithm. Simulation results show that the performance of LSEA based IoT scheme achieves acceptable security level in terms of histogram, entropy and correlation performances as well as it has a good execution time performance for different types of messages. Based on this analysis, it can be concluded that the proposed LSEA-IOT is a promising algorithm and can be considered as an appropriate nominee to be utilized for IoT devices and it can be used for real-time applications.

ijraset, 2022

Internet of Things (IoT) is becoming more and more pervasive in all applications. It has greater capabilities like remote monitoring and control. Different available APIs make IoT devices and applications easy to develop and deploy. The data generated by IoT devices is smaller in size and needs light weight protocols like MQTT to carry it over the network. Risk Mitigation in IoT data is very crucial and to do that traditional security and risk mitigation algorithms like RSA, SHA-512 and all cannot be used as IoT devices have smaller data. Applying traditional security and Risk Mitigation techniques to IoT data by traditional algorithms will cause the computation overhead in IoT applications. Different Light Weight Encryptions schemes for risk mitigation are suggested like PRESENT, HUMMINGBIRD et al. in this paper, different light weight encryption algorithms used in IoT risk mitigation are studied and understood.

Energy Efficient Lightweight Cryptography Algorithms for IoT Devices
Deepak Kumawat

IETE Journal of Research, 2019

Over few decades, people have been working on providing security solutions, whereas attackers too have been working simultaneously. We present an evaluation of security algorithms, comparing performances and robustness. These comparisons are performed after hardware implementation and use crypt analysis. The targeted devices are wrist watches, RFID tags, IoT devices and others, which don't have a lot of areas (millions of gate equivalent). While performing this, the primary concern has been exploration of an algorithm that can work in these constrained limits. This led to a search for an algorithm that has low hardware footprints, low power consumption and better speed but at the same time implements adequate security. PRESENT has been found to be one such suitable algorithm. It has been also included in the new international standard for lightweight cryptographic methods under ISO/IEC 29192-2:2012 for its straight forward and light design. Our paper reports hardware implementation results of PRESENT, AES, ECDH, DH and RSA cryptography algorithms. We have implemented these algorithms with standard gate library of UMC-90 nm. Each algorithm has its own architecture and hence requires different crypt-analysis techniques like brute force, Pollard's Rho and biclique for "difficulty to break" measurement. It is a measure in term of time and data complexity of efforts required of a cryptographic attack. We have obtained 1.7× improvement in area and 63× improvement in power for modified PRESENT algorithm as compared to AES. It has also been observed that the proposed PRESENT algorithm has a time complexity of break attack as 2 127 for 128 bit key length.

Data Protection is a major research topic concerning the Internet of Things (IoT). IoT systems continue to permeate deeper into our personal lives, where devices sense, process, and store all kinds of data. This poses various challenges to security and privacy aspects, especially to applications running on resource constrained devices. In this paper we evaluate selected, well established data protection mechanisms that enable confidentiality and integrity of data. Specifically, we look into the performance of different cryptographic block and stream ciphers, hashing algorithms, message authentication codes, signature mechanisms, and key exchange protocols executed on state-ofthe-art resource constrained devices. By providing limitations and data throughput values, our obtained results ease the calculation of performance/data protection thresholds and facilitate the design and development of secure IoT systems.

The algorithm we propose solves the issues of optimizing the costs of computing and energy resources of internet of things (IoT) devices, using a combination of lightweight cryptographic principles and fuzzy logic, and also provides reliable security and intelligent authentication of the mobile application user. The paper also considers the practical implementation of the proposed algorithm based on Arduino ESP32, a device with limited computing resources. In addition to this, fuzzy logic has found its practical application in the field of intelligent user authentication in developed mobile applications based on Arduino Studio for mobile cellular applications. As a result, the proposed lightweight encryption algorithm has proven itself to be an effective tool in ensuring the security of data transmission and communication between IoT devices.

Improving Security of IoT Devices using Cryptographic Algorithms
IRJET Journal

IoT has revolutionized the Smart Home Environment with all of its features, tools, and technologies, and its easily modifiable and scalable environment. The use of Internet of Things (IoT) devices has become very common these days, being present in almost every home. Internet of Things (IoT), to define it, is a huge network of interconnected gadgets which can gather data of the surroundings in which they operate. As this technology requires a connection to the internet, data transfer among components may not always be secure. This insecure data may be subject to attack at any moment. To prevent this, the use of cryptographic algorithms is necessary. But to the low processing power of an IoT Processor, conventional cryptographic algorithms may be deemed too heavy a burden on the performance. Therefore, the use of lightweight cryptography is required. Lightweight Cryptography, much like conventional cryptography, encrypts and decrypts data using specific algorithms and with the use of a key. The differences are only in the performance and optimization. Lightweight cryptography runs much faster than conventional. This lightweight cryptography may sometimes lack security. Therefore, the paper proposes the hybridization of a conventional algorithm and a lightweight algorithm. This algorithm will possess a high performance in terms of execution time.

Although IoT explosion offers a wide range of opportunities for manufacturers and consumers, it also poses major risks in terms of security being a widespread network. A security mechanism is needed to protect the devices from cyber attacks. This can only be achieved by including security mechanism in the early stages of IoT based device’s design to observe privacy and safe transmission of data over network. In existing system, standard protocols were used for data transmission and basic encryption techniques were being applied for ensuring the security of IoT based devices. But it failed in preventing against routing attacks and packet losses in transmission. To overcome these problems, a two tier security model has been proposed in present study. Therefore, this paper proposes a two tier security model for IoT based devices. In this approach the advanced encryption standard (AES) are used with multiplicative inverse encryption algorithm (MIE) to ensure the security of data. A comparative analysis between proposed model and existing model has been performed in the present study. The parameters packet size, transmission time and error rate has been determined in the comparison.
