“…When a DAF encrypts all communication, it indeed provides a robust layer of security for the application data, essentially rendering the information within the DIFs secure. This approach aligns with the principle of data protection at rest and in transit, one of the cornerstones of information security [42]. However, it's essential to understand that within a RINA network, each DIF still plays a crucial role in maintaining the overall system's security.…”

The Internet of Things (IoT) has revolutionized our lives by connecting devices to the internet, enabling automation and simplifying daily routines. However, as IoT is built upon the foundation of older network architectures and protocols, such as the Internet, its integration has brought forth significant challenges, particularly in achieving both transport layer efficiency and security at the same time. This paper presents a comprehensive overview of the current network stacks used in IoT and highlights the issues they face in this regard. We propose a novel architectural approach leveraging the Recursive InterNetwork Architecture (RINA) to address these challenges. We thoroughly evaluate how RINA's unique combination of recursion and networking can effectively reconcile the efficiency-security trade-off inherent in IoT networks; this has the potential to overcome the limitations of existing architectures and resolving the long-standing issue with Performance Enhancing Proxies (PEPs) that cannot operate on encrypted connections. We demonstrate the practical application of RINA through two use cases: a smart home environment, where RINA provides a unified networking framework, reducing the complexities of integrating diverse systems, and a healthcare patient monitoring scenario, where RINA ensures seamless integration of legacy devices while maintaining the advantages of the RINA architecture, including security and efficient data transmission. The paper concludes with a comprehensive discussion on potential future research topics, paving the way for an efficient and secure IoT ecosystem.

Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is an essential technology in many Internet of Things (IoT) applications, and since sensor nodes suffer from limited resources, it has become possible to overcome storage capacity problems using cloud computing, the integration of Internet of Things (IoT) with cloud computing (CC) seeks to achieve new levels of efficiency in service delivery. Security and privacy are key factors that slow down the rapid and widespread adoption and deployment of both IoT and cloud computing. In the proposed model, an integrated IoT system with cloud computing was developed starting from the analysis, and design, to the implementation to connect IoT devices with the cloud, the security is achieved by using a hybrid encryption mechanism which provides the performance advantages of symmetric and asymmetric encryption algorithms. Where the Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) algorithm is used for key generation and AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) algorithm is used for encryption and decryption of the sensors' data to provide a reliable computing environment. We have implemented the proposed system and showed the results of using CONTIKI COOJA 3.0 that connected with the cloud service provider, Evaluate a set of performance metrics such as power consumption, packet delivery ratio, and the algorithm execution time, in addition to verifying network immunity against the black hole attack.

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a network of linked physical objects worldwide, communicating via the Internet to one another. IoT expects the interconnection between a few trillions of intelligent things and the collected information offers a lot of private information needs to be analyzed and transmitted. So the provision of security to the information is a major challenge for many current and future applications of IoT. Basically, the main components of IoTs are Smartphone, Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), etc. The design and implementation of security and privacy management system for these things are driven by considerations such as good performance, information tampering, low power consumption, threat robustness and an end to end security. Security systems in IoT offer unauthorized access to information or other things by providing protection against modification or damage. In this paper, we propose a hybrid algorithm designed to preserve data confidentiality in IoT. Proposed algorithm design is a combination of Message Digest algorithm (MD5), Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) and Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) algorithms. The hybrid algorithm uses the concept of sharing geotag by destination IoT node to source node. Encryption involves three phases: Generation of fixed-length hash value i.e., hash function, encryption, and key generation. MD5 hash algorithm accepts plain text at the source IoT node as input and returns output a fixed length digest value. This value is encrypted using AES algorithm. Then ECC algorithm is applied to generate the encryption key. ECC offers a small key size and secured as compared to conventional cryptographic algorithms. We have simulated and analyzed the performance metrics of the proposed hybrid algorithm in terms of encryption time, memory utilization, end to end delay and decryption time w.r.t. varying file sizes as compared to AES encryption algorithm.
