The Internet of Things (IoT) is one of the emerging technology in today's world to connect billions of electronic devices and providing the data security to these electronic devices while transmission from the attacks is a big challenging task. These electronic devices are smaller and consume less power. The conventional security algorithms are complex with its computations and not suitable for IoT environments. In this article, the hardware architecture of the new Lightweight encryption algorithm (LEA) for the secured Internet of things (SIoT) is designed, which includes Encryption, decryption along with key generation process. The New LEA-SIoT is a hybrid combination of the Feistel networks and Substitutionpermutation Network (SPN). The encryption/decryption architecture is the composition of Logical operations, substitution transformations, and swapping. The encryption/decryption process is designed for 64-bit data input and 64-bit key inputs. The key generation process is designed with the help of KHAZAD block cipher algorithm. The encryption and key generation process are executing in parallel with pipelined architecture with five rounds to improve the hardware and computational complexity in IoT systems. TheLEA-SIoT is designed on the Xilinx platform and implemented on Artix-7 FPGA. The hardware constraints like area, power, and timing utilization are summarized. The Comparison of the LEA-SIoT with similar security algorithms is tabulated with improvements.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
