“…We compared our protocol with other existing key establishment schemes that also provide authentication properties in Table 3. In [14], the key establishment required two parties to update information for consecutive communication. Excluding the registration phase, the protocol needed four exchange messages, with a total of 168 bytes.…”

“…Different approaches can be used to evaluate the computation overhead of a communication protocol. Some studies, like [14,30], tested the cost of elliptic curve operations and hash functions on desktop processors and then deducted the overall timing cost from their proposed protocols. On the other hand, the studies in [28,29] calculated the overall timing cost by adopting the timing of those operations and functions from other works.…”

“…The protocol allowed for establishing a level 1 secure channel with the least computational cost (2T sm + T a + 2T h ). The protocol in [14] yielded the same cost in computing; however, the material to establish a share key was quadrupled. With level 2 security, the computation cost was less than [29,30].…”

“…Meanwhile, a lightweight scheme is favorable for passive tag devices where resource limitations are more strict. In addition, many recent works shared the same methodology of integrating strong cryptography, like ECC, to secure communication in IoT networks [13][14][15].…”

Internet-of-things networks consist of multiple sensor devices spread over a wide area. In order to protect the data from unauthorized access and tampering, it is essential to ensure secure communication between the sensor devices and the central server. This security measure aims to guarantee authenticity, confidentiality, and data integrity. Unlike traditional computing systems, sensor node devices are often limited regarding memory and computing power. Lightweight communication protocols, such as LoRaWAN, were introduced to overcome these limitations. However, despite the lightweight feature, the protocol is vulnerable to different types of attacks. This proposal presents a highly secure key establishment protocol that combines two cryptography schemes: Elliptic Curve Qu–Vanstone and signcryption key encapsulation. The protocol provides a method to establish a secure channel that inherits the security properties of the two schemes. Also, it allows for fast rekeying with only one exchange message, significantly reducing the handshake complexity in low-bandwidth communication. In addition, the selected schemes complement each other and share the same mathematical operations in elliptic curve cryptography. Moreover, with the rise of a community-friendly platform like RISC-V, we implemented the protocol on a RISC-V system to evaluate its overheads regarding the cycle count and execution time.
