Designing of Lightweight Security Scheme for IoT (2020)

Abstract

Research and development is continuing to improve privacy for low-resource Internet of Things devices, and two examples are encrypted client-side and secure provisioning. Since conventional security methods need the use of resource-intensive cryptographic algorithms, they are often incompatible with the limited computing power of IoT devices. Therefore, developing new security schemes or adapting current ones as lightweight is a possibility for restricted IoT devices. In this paper, we introduce the Efficient Security Encryption Standard (ESS), an improved variant of the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES). Power-constrained IoT devices may use this technique to improve their security in areas like client-side encryption and secure provisioning, among others. Data produced by IoT devices should be secured on the client side before transmission to chosen cloud platforms, since cloud computing is the fundamental enabler for the mass provisioning of IoT devices. However, a significant difficulty still persists when attempting to satisfy several competing needs. Rapid computation
