Abstract

Internet of Things(IoT) is playing a pivotal role in our daily life as well as in various fields like Health, agriculture, industries etc. In the go, the data in the various IoT applications will be easily available to the physical dominion and thus the process of ensuringthe security of the data will be a major concern. For the extensive implementation of the numerous applications of IoT , the data security is a critical component. In our work, we have developed an encryption technique to secure the data of IoT. With the help of Merkle-Hellman encryption the data collected from the various IoT devices are first of all encrypted and then the secret message is generated with the help of Elliptic Curve Cryptography.

Highlights

In today’s world, IoT is a fast growing technology
The data from the sensors or RFID etc are very important for the IoT. This data is being shared with other wireless components which are part of the network as in an health care system the data from the various hospitals are shared in the global network
The Elliptic curve cryptography algorithm was discussed by Keerthi K et al [7] and they proposed a new way to augment Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) by dipping its calculating time and cost

Summary

INTRODUCTION

In today’s world, IoT is a fast growing technology. Various objects like printer, cooler, phone etc are all considered as smart objects as IoT has enabled them to communicate with one another. In the dynamic network of IoT, the physical objects are integrated into the network system. This global network is self-configuring which follow the standard protocols [2]. The data from the sensors or RFID etc are very important for the IoT This data is being shared with other wireless components which are part of the network as in an health care system the data from the various hospitals are shared in the global network. In case of a location monitoring system, the location details collected with the help of sensors are shared globally. At this point the crucial thing is the security of the data. In the Merkle Hellman Knapsack system, subset problem is created which makes the calculation modest and effectual [4]
