“…Essentially, this is the main focus of LWC research, an interesting research area which investigates the design and implementation of lightweight and compact cryptographic algorithms for resource-constrained devices [34]. Since this paper focuses more on the LWCAR component of the proposed framework, in the following section, we discuss some aspects of LWC and LWCAs.…”

The past couple of years have marked continued growth in the applications and services of the Internet of Things (IoT). This has attracted the attention of new operators as well as institutional, corporate, and private investors in every sector of the economy, and as a result, new businesses are springing up rapidly. These include many start-up companies that are producing various kinds of useful IoT devices and Smart Applications (smart apps). While this can be seen as a boost for innovation in the IoT, some of these companies produce IoT devices and smart apps with security vulnerabilities. In this paper, we propose the IoT Hardware Platform Security Advisor (IoT-HarPSecA), a security framework intended to provide support to such IoT producers. IoT-HarPSecA offers three functionality features, namely security requirement elicitation, security best practice guidelines for secure development, and above all, a feature that recommends specific LightWeight Cryptographic Algorithms (LWCAs) for both software and hardware implementations. Accordingly, IoT-HarPSecA is composed of three main components, namely Security Requirements Elicitation (SRE) component, Security Best Practice Guidelines (SBPG) component, and LightWeight Cryptographic Algorithms Recommendation (LWCAR) component, each of them servicing one of the aforementioned features. We implement a command-line tool in C++ to serve as an interface between users and the proposed framework. IoT-HarPSecA can be employed during the early stages of IoT systems design, and it can also be used to facilitate the implementation of security in existing IoT systems. This paper presents a detailed description, design, and implementation of the SRE, SBPG, and LWCAR components of the proposed framework. Using real-world practical scenarios, we show how IoT-HarPSecA can be used to elicit security requirements and recommend appropriate LWCAs based on user inputs. While a full performance evaluation of the SRE and SBPG components is beyond the scope of this paper, we present a detailed performance evaluation of the LWCAR component, which shows that IoT-HarPSecA can serve as a roadmap for secure IoT development.

“…If the algorithm has the more number of rounds for both encryption and decryption degrades the performances. So in future the hybrid models should be developed to reduce the computation power and increase the efficiency of data security in IOT applications [20]when compared to the conventional algorithms.…”

IOT - things like the smart devices and sensors that connects and communicates through Internet. IOT applications like smart home, smart vehicles, smart retail, which makes the mankind’s life easier. There is a prediction that we will be having million of devices connects to the Internet. Since the sensitive devices like baby monitoring devices, health monitoring devices are the part of interconnected world there is the necessity to address the consequence of the security aspects of the IOT. The built-in nature of the IOT is to trace user’s identity easily, so the security and privacy concerns like stealing the data, disruption of operations and even the loss of life are becoming critical issues in today’s IOT applications. Due to the resource constrained environment in IOT the conventional algorithms is not enough to ensure the data security. So we need a less computational cost in terms of power consumption and memory management and more efficient cryptography algorithms which are discussed in this paper.

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.
